Out of curiosity, why isn't "subset" (and "weights", which is very similar in that regard) evaluated in the "data" environment, just like the formula? Is this for historical reasons, or are there drawbacks to such a feature?
It seems very common to pass a data frame via the "data" argument, and use variables from it for subsetting and/or weighting.
