how can i combine two multiassayexperiment object without using Experiment extraction and subsequently combination in MAE?

Example:

> MAE1
A MultiAssayExperiment object of 2 listed
 experiments with user-defined names and respective classes. 
 Containing an ExperimentList class object of length 2: 
 [1] mae1_exp_1: SummarizedExperiment with 20 rows and 10 columns 
 [2] mae1_exp_2: SummarizedExperiment with 20 rows and 10 columns

> MAE2
A MultiAssayExperiment object of 2 listed
 experiments with user-defined names and respective classes. 
 Containing an ExperimentList class object of length 2: 
 [1] mae2_exp_1: SummarizedExperiment with 20 rows and 10 columns 
 [2] mae2_exp_2: SummarizedExperiment with 20 rows and 10 columns 

> PSEUDOCODE: MAE3 <-c(MAE1, MAE2)

> MAE3
A MultiAssayExperiment object of 4 listed
 experiments with user-defined names and respective classes. 
 Containing an ExperimentList class object of length 4: 
 [1] mae1_exp_1: SummarizedExperiment with 20 rows and 10 columns 
 [2] mae1_exp_2: SummarizedExperiment with 20 rows and 10 columns

 [3] mae2_exp_1: SummarizedExperiment with 20 rows and 10 columns 
 [4] mae2_exp_2: SummarizedExperiment with 20 rows and 10 columns

I get the idea but one requirement would be to keep experiment names unique across `MultiAssayExperiment` objects. I am coming up with a patch to allow this. Thanks, MR

Hi Mario, Thank you for posting this enhancement request.

I have added it to MultiAssayExperiment 1.7.19 (devel). The stipulation is that experiment names must be unique across MultiAssayExperiment objects.

Best regards, Marcel
