Hello all,
At the start of the SummarizedExperiment constructor, there's a code
block that throws an error if 'colData' is not specified and the assay
matrices don't have column names.
Is this really necessary? In many cases, I just want to get a matrix
into the SE0 object without having to

While on the topic of SummarizedExperiment colnames, the circumstances in
which these are stripped from the assays and overridden by colData is
confusing to me, particularly case 2 below (a warning in case 3 might be
useful too).

Thanks Peter and Aaron.
For SummarizedExperiment 1.1.9 in svn now:
For Aaron's original issue, SummarizedExperiment now allows construction from
NULL colnames; it does not construct colnames.
The behavior of SummarizedExperiment with respect to colnames is to use and
keep them if provided, but
