As far as I know no. But to implement such a feature is quite easy. The only 
thing I'm concerning about is the naming issue.

For Windows OS there're commands like 'winMenuAdd' etc. i.e. prefixed by 'win'. 
One could implement this for Mac by using names like 'macMenuAdd' etc. but I 
think it'd better due to platform independent R scripts to have commands like 
'menuAdd' which then dispatches on basis of the running OS and R version the 
command to 'win...' or 'mac...' or simply ignore it if OS doesn't support such 
stuff.

The other way would be to adopt the names like 'winMenuAdd' and write a wrapper 
for R.app for such commands.

Any opinions?

Best,
