I would go with unlist on x,single bracket subsetted on f


x <- list(`1` = c(7, 13, 1, 4, 10),
          `2` = c(2, 5,  14, 8, 11),
          `3` = c(6, 9, 15, 12, 3))
f <- factor(rep(1:3,5))

unlist(x[f])


Yes, unsplit() it is. I was messing around with ave() (which can be hammered into submission, sort of).

My overlooking unsplit() is somewhat impressive in view of "svn diff -c 18591"....
