We currently use new_http_archive for external R packages, and explicitly list CRAN and BioC repo URLs for the package. A new repository rule for R remote repositories should help.

Closing as won't fix. Each package will still need to be its own repo as cran and bioc are huge, and you can not partially download an external repo. Value add for having a new rule for per package repo is minimal.
