Yes, that's exactly what I want, except in my case my objects contain about 20 or 30 bits of information that are irrelevant (I'm my case documentation about the class and other functions), so it would be surprising if p1 and p2 which produced identical plots gave different digests. If you want the default behaviour, you could always call digest.default to digest the entire object.
