[Rd] Add on argument in seq()

Hi.

I have a problem with the default behavior of seq(), which gives the argument "from" when the argument length.out = 1.
This behavior is annoying when the number of value determine in length.out is not predictable.
Would it be possible to add an argument that propose the median/mean, i.e. (from + to) / 2 when  length.out = 1 ? Examples:
> seq(from = 1, to =  11, length.out=1) # current method gives "from"
1

> seq(from = 1, to =  11, length.out=1) # alternative method gives the intermediate value of "from" and "to"
6

Many thanks for your help.

Best wishes,

Gael Millot.
