I also use ESS to edit my R code (inside Aquamacs Emacs), but I usually use
the OS X port R.app for most of my interactive sessions. Together I think
those give me roughly the same amount of IDE-like support as you've got in
your setup.
I think the ess-smart-underscore command alone is worth the price of
admission.
But none of that directly addresses the issue of automatically (or
semi-automatically) taking a long sequence of commands and pruning it down
to a smaller sequence that produces the same results. Theoretically the
allowable prunings would be akin to those of a good optimizer. And the R
language would seem fairly amenable to such things, with its pass-by-value
functional semantics, etc.
