I agree this is a  ``missing feature'' and well worth wish list item.

How would get the equivalent of  LaTeX  x_{i_1, j_2}  ?
Not by making it a string (that's not  escape, I'd say),
but by something like

    plot(0, axes=FALSE, main= expression(paste(x[i[1]],{}[j[2]])))

which works +-  
but of course is unnecessarily ugly, compared to the desired

    plot(0, axes=FALSE, main= expression(      x[i[1], j[2]]))
