Sorry I was too terse in my previous answer: I completely agree with
the goal you describe, but I don't think adding an .org source along
the .el output (say e.g. ob-R.org and ob-R.el) will simplify my life
as a maintainer: each time an ob-*.org file is changed we need to
tangle it again... and this leads to auto-tangling, auto-committing
considerations that I don't even want to start thinking about.
