I would like to get the list of variables of an expression: is that
possible?  I searched the help and the web without success.  In
practice, given an expression like

expr = parse(text="x^2+y^3")

I would like to have a function such as:

vars(expr)

returns

c("x", "y") or a list like the one returned by formals().

attr(terms(formula(paste("~", "x^2+y^3"))), "variables")
# returns list(x, y)
