Well, it seems that the following does what I want. In the NAMESPACE file, one can do:
importFrom("pkgA", foo=bar) Which will allow you to use the symbol 'foo' to refer to pkgA::bar. This is exactly what I wanted. Despite the lack of documentation, this seems an intentional feature. Is there a reason not to document it and allow it as part of the NAMESPACE feature set?
