Passing table the output of model.frame would still allow the use of a formula interface:
mf <- model.frame( ~ data, na.action = na.pass)
do.call("table", c(mf, useNA = "ifany"))
    a    b    c <NA>
    1    1    1    1


Fair enough, this qualifies as a workaround, and IMO this is how xtabs should handle it internally to allow writing xtabs(~data, na.action = na.pass) -- or at least xtabs(~data, na.action = na.pass, exclude = NULL) if backward compatibility is desired. Would anyone with write access to R's SVN repo care enough about this situation to review a patch? Thanks.
