Just because the length of a vector is greater than a specific element does not mean that all smaller elements are set at the moment (unless I am very much mistaken).

Yeah, I think I remember it working like that also, but not sure if it's actually intended to be used in that way.  Probably should be easy to implement the "in" operator so it just checks that.  Unless there's some larger functionality Seth wanted?
