if 'e' is a vector of mode 'expression', will the following always
return TRUE:
identical(e, parse(text = as.character(e))) ?
> (e <- expression(x, y, z, 200*f%/%d, sin(e)))
expression(x, y, z, 200 * f%/%d, sin(e))
> identical(e, parse(text = as.character(e)))
[1] TRUE
i have been relying on this fact in some of my code, and would be
appreciative of any counterexamples.
