OK, that's a good point.
I didn't think of that.
Michael Lawrence was probably correct in his comment:

I'm thinking that we need an array object designed for specifically for
other objects.
I think it would be good if it was part of the standard R distribution.
But that's not up to me.
Note that I'm planning to create an R package for matrix based and table
based objects, in the near future, possibly extending the Matrix package.
(So, likely to be in S4).
I will think about object arrays in R, some more.
Thank you for highlighting this issue.
Sorry, I can't offer an immediate solution.
