It isn't really intended for end users, as the help page effectively says.
It is part of a standard way to write methods for modelling functions, and
people doing so should copy the examples like lm and glm.

It definitely is not intended to be used like this, and any time you find
yourself changing a class do bear in mind that is rarely a good idea.
