Specifying prompt is already possible (from R 1.6.0).
See http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~leisch/Sweave/Sweave-manual-20021007.pdf:
"As of R version 1.6.0 the driver gets the prompts used for input lines and
continuation lines from
R?s options() settings. To set new prompts use somthing like
options(prompt="MyR> ", continue="...")"
