R devel - Oct 2013 - user defined macros in Rd files

R-exts, in "2.13 User-defined macros", discusses user-defined macros. 
Is
it possible to have macros defined in one file, be used by another (within
a package)?  This would increase the usefulness substantially, IMHO.

Best,
Kasper

+1. As an example, there are 91 instances of \newcommand{\CRANpkg} in
R source, and this number is still growing as I see:

$ grep "\\\\newcommand{\\\\CRANpkg}" -r . | wc
     91      91   10317
