This is deliberate.
Datasets can only be used directly for packages to be installed with
`LazyData: Yes', and that is not known when prompt() is called.
Allowing direct use of datasets is a convenience that the avantgarde

Not necessarily a bug report, but might be nice to change.
I'm using R 2.0.0 on Windows 2000.
The promptData function creates a .Rd file in which the 'usage' section is:
\usage{data()}
I've looked at several of the help files for various data sets. It looks
like the use of 'data' is being red
