It could be helpful to relax the assumption of exactly balanced cluster size when estimating statistical power using simulation, so I propose that we add a new "distribution" called something like clusterSize that will implement this. As part of data definitions, the user will specify the overall sample size in the formula argument, and will input a dispersion parameter (that will be input into the variance field that is a non-negative number, with 0 meaning exact balance, and larger values implying more variability in the cluster sizes. The only link option argument will be "identity" (the default, so does not need to be specified).
