[R] packagename:::functionname vs. importFrom

Correct.  I'm doing this because of non-exported functions in other packages,
so I need :::

I'd still appreciate any insight about whether importFrom in NAMESPACE
defers package loading so that if the package is not actually used (and is
not installed) there will be no problem.

Thanks
Frank
