Hi all,
I keep answering my own emails, but please see no narcissism in this.
Emmanuel told me that there were no constraint imposed on the order of
the tips in $edge. That is, the first appearing tip is not necessarily
"1", etc., even if this is often the case (especially in rtree / rcoal).
Hence, the matching of anything related to tips should be done with
tip.labels. I corrected the plot method accordingly.
Cheers,
Thibaut.
