FWIW the code in S4Vectors that does what your subset_ROW() does is:
https://github.com/Bioconductor/S4Vectors/blob/04cc9516af986b30445e99fd1337f13321b7b4f6/R/subsetting-utils.R#L466-L476
(This is the default "extractROWS" method.)
Except for the normalization of 'i', it does the same as your
subset_ROW(). I don't know how to do this without generating a call
with missing arguments.
