Duncan's version is much clearer than my solution, and the only reason I
use my version is so that the source reference of the function looks
neater, and so that auto-code-indentation won't mess up my source reference
either.
If none of that made sense, don't worry about it, use Duncan's approach.

My suggestion is having a package-specific environment, and Duncan's
is to have a function-specific environment. If you only need this for
this one function, then that

I have a plot method (say plot.foo()) that I want to be able to call so
that if argument "add" is set equal to TRUE, then further structure will
be added to the same plot. This is to be used *only* in the context in
which the plot being added to was created using plot.foo().
