Positron doesn't automatically pick up a scoop-installed R #30

I suspect this may be because scoop doesn't automatically add R to the system registry, or to the PATH like rig. Unfortunately, those of us on work computers without admin permissions can't use rig to install R, even with scoop.

Would it possible to have the bucket add every R installation to the user registry? Adding scoop\apps\r-release\current\ and scoop\apps\r-daily\current\ to the PATH works, but I switching versions needs to happen via Scoop which feels a bit clunky.
