Even if it doesn't help with org-bable, it makes life in ESS much pleasanter. You can also look at the latex() function in the R package Hmisc and the function xtable() from the R package xtable. For data frames, matrices, and some common summary functions, these functions will create a latex table out of your R object. Maybe Dan can suggest how latex code generated in R could be properly included and typeset in org-babel.
