It would be nice if names(obj) would give slot names as well. Since for many people slots are new, the first thing that happens is you try to access what's in them and can't find how to do it. If you don't know that slotNames() exists, it can be very frustrating. Moreover, if you don't even know that the objects has slots (or that such things exist), it's extremely confusing. It just looks like nothing is there (you get NULL). If needed, you could have a message that says that these are slots and should be accessed with "@".
