Hi all, I wanted to share with you an experimental package that I?m currently working on: vctrs, <https://github.com/r-lib/vctrs>. The motivation for vctrs is to think deeply about the output ?type? of functions like `c()`, `ifelse()`, and `rbind()`, with an eye to implementing one strategy throughout the tidyverse (i.e. all the functions listed at

...venient not to need to do the column subsetting myself. This behavior would also meet your design goals of associativity and commutivity. I want to be clear, I think what you describe is a useful operation, if it is what is intended, but perhaps a different name rather than calling it rbind? maybe vec_rcbind to indicate that both rows and columns are being potentially added to any given individual input.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that this is unlikely to be the final name. As well as the problem you mention, I think calling them vec_cbind() and vec_rbind() over-emphasises the symmetry betwee...
