this wasn't possible until half an hour ago. In the current SVN version, you
can specify
  <browser type="file" allow_urls="true" id="file" label="File name"/>


This did not work for me. Try, for example,
http://courses.umass.edu/econ753/berndt/stata/chap5-cps.dta

while
mydata <- read.dta
("http://courses.umass.edu/econ753/berndt/stata/chap5-cps.dta";)
does work in command-line R.

Yours,
Michael
