As it is one could certainly

If we want to go down this route then I think the right strategy would be to 
make the exptData slot more strict. But what would the MIAME-like container look 
like? The basics are probably shared, but what else?

  [1] "name"              "lab"               "contact"
  [4] "title"             "abstract"          "url"
  [7] "pubMedIds"         "samples"           "hybridizations"
[10] "normControls"      "preprocessing"     "other"
[13] ".__classVersion__"
