ESS and RAqua

When R 1.8.0 comes out in a few weeks there will be a GUI version for Mac
OS distributed in binary form.  Presumably some people (like me) will want
to use ESS rather than the GUI at least some of the time.

1) FYI.  This can be done with
 (setq inferior-R-program-name
    "/Applications/StartR.app/RAqua.app/Contents/bin/R")
The path can safely be hard-coded because the GUI won't work unless it's
in that location.

2) That is ugly because the entire path is displayed when prompting
for the starting directory.  Is there a way to set the path to R
separately from the name?
