"Why did read.table stop reading my file" is a pretty FAQ, e.g.

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.general/297406/focus=297409

(I could come up with a lot more examples if someone wanted).

The answer is typically "check for spurious comment characters and
unmatched quotation marks"

Does this seem FAQ-worthy? Should I e-mail the FAQ maintainer and suggest
it?
