{typed} is on CRAN!
The main issue with ‘unpack’ being accepted by CRAN (besides manipulating the calling scope) is that it fails R CMD CHECK because it gets confused by the assignment syntax in the \usage in the documentation. I think this is an error in R CMD check since the CRAN message makes incorrect claims about missing \alias entries (which are in fact there). But, to be fair, this usage was clearly not intended by R, so all bets are off. I might be able to use \special{}. Hmm …
