Thanks.
It would be good having this documented in the help page of raster.
The closest is for
## S4 method for signature 'SpatialPixels'
raster(x, layer=1, values=TRUE)
which does not provide any clue for the case of SpatialPixelsDataFrame objects.
Another suggestion: a syntax similar to the one in rasterize() would
make sense for consistency,
ie. having the following
r <- raster(x=m, field="dist")
as a valid command also would be helpful for the user (similar syntax
for similar tasks is the only way to remember a language)
