It's on the ESS side. There are two things, package mode (devtools commands) is
activated in specified sub-directories only (see ess-r-package-dirs), but
name-space evaluation is activated only within ./R sub-directory.

I think this is the right behavior and your use case is non-standard. It's very
unlikely that from a Rmd file you would need to evaluate code in the namespace.

Yes, with C-c C-t C-s you can either disable or activate namespaced evaluation
into any of the currently loaded packages.
