(indeed; that would have been useful)


Hmm, it's not clear what *should* be drawn in such a
case. Leaving away all the observations with  h_ii = 1
seems a particularly bad idea, since these are the ones that
you'd definitely should remark.
OTOH, for h_ii = 1, the cook distance is 'NaN' 
(or should that be changed; to  "very large" instead ???)
and plot number 6 doesn't seem to make any sense to me

When 'which = 6' was proposed 
[ on R-devel as well, last April,
  http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/05/04/0595.html
  ah, I see, by David Firth, from your place, so, Heather, can you
  make sure he sees this e-mail ?

I actually had wondered a bit about it's general usefulness,..

---

But the example is useful anyway; I think that also plot
number 5, (R_i vs h_ii) does the wrong thing currently by just
leaving away all points for which h_ii = 1.
These really should be shown one or the other way!
