Well, I know that, and you know that, but how is anyone supposed to
figure it out? It means that you need to have a working knowledge of
the S3 and S4 class systems before you can use the help to reliably
get the documentation you need.
For S3 you do to understand that there are

But you also have to be able to identify if it is a S3 function or an
S4 method (or an ordinary function).
Why not just type ?summary, which as I said, does tell you up front?
If R can save the novice user a couple of steps in their search for
help, why not do it?

Oops, summary.data.frame was a bad example, except perhaps to

That's great.

It's not likely that S3 methods will ever go away, at least in the sense
that all the code using them would be rewritten. What we can work
towards is to make more of the automated tools work for S3 methods as

Thanks. I am quite sure I don't want pending on exit actions to be done!
