Thank you for your reply, Peter. But that didn't work either. Continui
or a new class in order to make it
do the "basic" things you expect.

Thank you for your reply, Peter. But that didn't work either. Continuing
the example:
setGeneric("unique")
setMethod("unique", "foo", function(x, incomparables = FALSE, ...){
y <- callNextMethod(x = getDataPart(x), incomparables = incomparables,
...)
new("foo", y)
})
> unique(bar)
