I also think that we're heading towards something like that.

So genome(gr) <- "hg19" would:

  (a) Add any missing information to the seqinfo.
  (b) Sort the seqlevels in "canonical" order.
  (c) Change the seqlevels style to UCSC style if they are not.

The 3 tasks are orthogonal. I guess most of the times people want
an easy way to perform them all at once.

We could easily support (a) and (b). This assumes that the current
seqlevels are already valid hg19 seqlevels:

  si1 <- Seqinfo(c("chrX", "chrUn_gl000249", "chr2", "chr6_cox_hap2"))
  gr1 <- GRanges(seqinfo=si1)
  hg19_si <- Seqinfo(genome="hg19")

  ## (a):
  seqinfo(gr1) <- merge(seqinfo(gr1), hg19_si)[seqlevels(gr1)]
  seqinfo(gr1)
  # Seqinfo object with 4 sequences (1 circular) from hg19 genome:
  #   seqnames       seqlengths isCircular genome
  #   chrX            155270560      FALSE   hg19
  #   chrUn_gl000249      38502      FALSE   hg19
  #   chr2            243199373      FALSE   hg19
  #   chr6_cox_hap2     4795371      FALSE   hg19

  ## (b):
  seqlevels(gr1) <- intersect(seqlevels(hg19_si), seqlevels(gr1))
  seqinfo(gr1)
  # Seqinfo object with 4 sequences (1 circular) from hg19 genome:
  #   seqnames       seqlengths isCircular genome
  #   chr2            243199373      FALSE   hg19
  #   chrX            155270560      FALSE   hg19
  #   chr6_cox_hap2     4795371      FALSE   hg19
  #   chrUn_gl000249      38502      FALSE   hg19

(c) is harder because seqlevelsStyle() doesn't know how to rename
scaffolds yet:

si2 <- Seqinfo(c("X", "HSCHRUN_RANDOM_CTG42", "2", "HSCHR6_MHC_COX_CTG1"))
  gr2 <- GRanges(seqinfo=si2)

  seqlevelsStyle(gr2)
  # [1] "NCBI"

  seqlevelsStyle(gr2) <- "UCSC"
  seqlevels(gr2)
# [1] "chrX" "HSCHRUN_RANDOM_CTG42" "chr2"
  # [4] "HSCHR6_MHC_COX_CTG1"

So we need to work on this.

I'm not sure about using genome(gr) <- "hg19" for this. Right now
it sets the genome column of the seqinfo with the supplied string
and nothing else. Aren't there valid use cases for this? What about
using seqinfo(gr) <- "hg19" instead? It kind of suggests that the
whole seqinfo component actually gets filled.

    Maybe this could eventually support setting the seqinfo with:

    genome(gr) <- "hg19"

    Or is that being too clever?
