Feature request: :colnames and :hlines in ob-R.el

At the moment, ob-R.el does not support :colnames to have a list of column
names as an argument. This seems to have been raised on the list many years
ago [1], but it does not look like it was implemented. Is there a
possibility that this could be implemented?

Also, is it possible to allow :hlines to have a list of row numbers as
arguments after which horizontal lines are drawn in the results? Could we
support a syntax such as the following

:hlines '(2 5 8)

Or something of this kind, which could then be used to draw lines after
these row numbers?

I think these two features would make it much easier to customise tables
created using R code blocks.

Would appreciate any comments and suggests.

Thanks very much and best wishes,

Vikas

My knowledge of lisp is too limited for me to be able to do this. How much
I wish to be able to hack this kind of thing myself...
