Non-Maintainer Update (NMU) is a well-defined term in the Debian Developer's Reference and packaging practice (see [1]) but not something that exists in the CRAN Repository Policy [2] so "requesting" a NMU is a tricky. As Duncan kindly explained there are some words in [2] about transfering / taking over but the "one-off nature" of the NMU is not something we have here at CRAN.
