CRAN accepted the package today along with the autodownload :). I'll defer to @daroczig about integrating with other cloud packages and authentication, I wrote the minimum amount of code I...

I believe this is because openxlsx checks for a file extension on the temp file. See also https://github.com/ycphs/openxlsx/blob/47df27e6f4fdab4bd51bedb6123881781f00887b/R/readWorkbook.R#L123-L125 and https://github.com/daroczig/botor/blob/8eb24fa7f0102fbc88d9941dc097cb4016c930e5/R/s3.R#L105

There's an environment variable for this, I've had to use it to install packages on red hat when the default temp location did not have execute privileges. I think it...

For me, there's little benefit (but also little harm) to allowing subdirectories if, at the end of the day, all the files are simply concatenated together - eg https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/780021752eb83a71e2198019acf069ba8741103b/src/library/tools/R/admin.R#L299-L314 If,...
