hmm, that is not currently possible from JS. Before I start adding something 
like that: Would it be possible to use R code for that, instead? This would 
potentially have the added benefit of making the generated code more portable.

If that suggestion does not sound good to you, could you post a couple of 
example lines to make it easier to discuss the details?
