rowData rownames issue explored at BioC2018

[mikelove]

Here is a reproducing example for a potential issue in the devel branch version of SummarizedExperiment. It seems an inconsistency in rownames of rowData and rownames of the SE, which would prevent creation of an SE, is nevertheless allowed during rowData re-assignment.

We tried with SummarizedExperiment v1.11.5 (so use.names=TRUE is the default).

Thanks
