How to make RStudio start R console with --quiet?

Question

In question How to suppress R startup message?, starting rterm with --quiet will suppress the copyright and welcome messages. I wonder if I can do the same thing to the R Console started by RStudio?

You can't do this in RStudio. Apparently it is on their "to do" list.

There are a couple references on the RStudio support site, stating the above.
