The whole point of r_ is to allow you to use slice notation to build ranges easily. I wrote it precisely to make it easier to construct arrays in a simliar style that Matlab allows.
Maybe it is just me, but r_ is rather unintuitive. I would expect something like this to be called "c" for "combine" or "concatenate." This is the name used by S+ and R.
