[BioC] Place summary stats in names in flowViz xyplot

[Florian Hahne]

Hi Aric,
you have to adapt the panel function to make this happen. Start by  
taking a look at panel.xyplot.flowframe in the flowViz package. Seems  
like all you need to do is add an appropriate names argument to the  
call to glpolygon. The modified panel function has then to be supplied  
to the xyplot function via the panel argument.
An even cleaner solution would be to have your panel function call the  
predefined flowVIz one without plotting the gates, and then adding  
gates including the names in a second step. Deepayan's lattice book  
available from Springer is an excellent source to learn more about the  
concept of lattice and the panel function.
