Right now, if I open a workbook, then try to open it again, R hangs while excel asks if I want to re-open & discard changes.

It'd be really nice if there were a wrapper to open a file if and only if it's not open yet. A singleton pattern of sorts.

I know I can wrap xl.workbook.open to call/check xl.workbooks 1st, but it seems it would be common issue.

Thanks!
