My belief is that does not work with models with interactions, which is
where the Type III notation comes into its own (mess).

Model:
breaks ~ wool + tension + wool:tension
             Df Sum of Sq    RSS    AIC
<none>                    5745.1  264.0
wool:tension  2    1002.8 6747.9  268.7

Single term deletions
Model:
breaks ~ wool + tension + wool:tension
             Df Sum of Sq    RSS    AIC
<none>                    5745.1  264.0
wool          1     450.7 6195.8  266.1
tension       2    2034.3 7779.4  276.4
wool:tension  2    1002.8 6747.9  268.7
looks as if it does work in R (we know it works in S-PLUS, as Bill found
out when trying to do the opposite).  However, watch out as

Single term deletions
Model:
breaks ~ wool + tension + wool:tension
             Df    AIC
<none>          264.02
wool          0 264.02
tension       0 264.02
wool:tension  2 268.71
does respect the hierarchy, and is probably what drop1.lm should have
given.  (Looks like I did copy one of the S errors, probably deliberately, when 
I wrote drop1.*.)
