An IDE (or other user interface) should not alter the behavior of R,
especially the installing/loading/attaching of packages.

There are some possible exceptions:
(1) The global option for width.
(2) Output that would normally appear in a separate window.
(3) Maybe others...

But only as non-defaults, with consent from the user.
Also, while exception (2) may have an intuitive appeal, it's risky business...
