Arnaud,
You should take a look at the 'bbmle' package (on CRAN). It deals (sort of)
with your problem #2 by allowing a 'data=' argument (I had a respectful
disagreement with mle's author about whether this was a good idea or not,
so I went off and wrote my own extensions ...)
If I have a chance I will try to think about problem #1.
My version (mle2) is, I think, more robust and featureful than
stock mle, but it does need some refactoring ...
cheers
Ben Bolker
