I would go farther and nominate the sos package for inclusion as a recommended package (I don't have any conflict of interest in making the suggestion). When I tell students about it many of them are puzzled that it's not part of the core R framework. I understand the arguments against migrating new functionality into core R, but this functionality is super-useful especially for beginners, and it seems worth it to lower the bar for finding help, at the cost of not a huge amount of extra code to maintain.
