Use of non-exported GenomicRanges:::extraColumnSlotNames #9

You should very very very rarely use :::. This is a sign that you're using an internal function from someone else - and there is no guarantee that that function won't change from version to version. It would be better to encourage the author to make it an external, exported function, or ask if you could include a copy of it in your package (Source).

Ask Bioc-Devel whether GenomicRanges:::extraColumnSlotNames could/should be exported.
