[External] subfolders in the R folder
A quick drive-by-comment: What if 'R CMD build' would have an option
to flatten R/ subfolders when building the tarball, e.g.
R/unix/a.R
R/windows/a.R
R/a.R
becomes:
R/00__unix__a.R
R/00__windows__a.R
R/a.R
? Maybe that would be sufficient for most use cases. The only thing
I can imagine is that source file references (e.g. in check NOTEs)
will be toward the latter and not the former.
Of course, one could write a 'build2' shell script locally that wraps
all this...

for example to allow something like `library(foo)` to attach a package and
`library(foo.bar)` to attach some subset of package `foo`. That would
