Even while I am a bit sceptical whether the syntax for R should differ from r, I see your point.
Rather than R14 for a 14 measure rest, I would suggest to keep the syntax close to the one before: R*14 (This way I would almost be convinced ;) ) Could the duration be optional this way, keeping the current behaviour if given? I mean could this change request be implemented without affecting the recommended way at present? Probably not, because of ambiguities, and because the following notes would take the same duration.
