Actually, if you are editing it, c-c c-b from the buffer will "load"
it as well.

Something like:
(setq ess-source-directory
(lambda () (file-name-as-directory
(expand-file-name
(concat (default-directory) ;(CAR ess-search-list)
ess-suffix "-src")))))
will dump stuff in a subdirectory, R-src or S-src, of your current
working directory (running S/R), rather than in /tmp.
Then you can load out of that sub-directory.
Since I usually edit out of the subdirectory, I just make sure to
start one-level up, and load files from the subdirectory as needed for
editing (I almost never use C-c C-l, mainly C-c C-b, C-c C-r, C-c C-f,
and C-c C-n from the source code buffers that I'm editing).
best,
