[R] Weighted regression in rms/Hmisc

[Frank Harrell]

You should be able to pass a weights argument through fit.mult.impute to ols. 
I assume that weights are with respect to variables that you, for some
reason, do not want to have as predictors.  Otherwise you are already
conditioning on the weighting factors and no weights are needed.
