I'm sure it's possible to do from the R side, however, the requirement is
to hide this from the end user and set the reference objects name to the
declared name from the R environment. If I view the environment in RStudio,
there is much more information available. ls() only returns a list of
objects by their declared name. I'm wondering how to get more details about
elements in the environment.
