I think it does make sense to wrap GHMM. Not only is it much more feature rich than the three functions in the statistics package, it is also much faster. The hmm functions in the statistics package were written with Matlab stats compatibility in mind. There are still two functions missing: hmmdecode and hmmtrain. I somehow got stuck in hmmdecode as I could not make it to give the same results as the corresponding Matlab function (although both are still on my todo list).
