In principle this is working fine, but I have conducted experiments for the new rpy2.interactive module where using importr(<package_name>) would also expose all S4 classes as Python classes dynamically generated and met serious performance issues with bioconductor packages with a lot of S4 class definitions. The performance issues are either in the way I am using introspection on the R objects, or in the way R does introspection. You definitely want to jump on the rpy2-2.2.0 bandwagon early to try it out for yourself. > and > the larger number of R types wrapped (lists, for example).
