You should almost never need to modify valid R code to work with Sweave. (There are a few exceptions: code that illustrates errors, or code that requires interaction with a user, etc.)

There's nothing wrong with including mydata$somevar in an Sweave code chunk.

There is nonetheless a point to what she is suggesting. In my experience the $ tends to confuse the editor so the highlighting gets confused amongst other things

That sounds to me like a bug in your editor. I'd rather ask whoever wrote my editor to fix the bug, rather than changing the formatting of the document I'm writing to work around their bugs.
