looks interesting!

modelbased is listed in the Causal Inference task view on CRAN, so it maybe makes sense to make this topic a bit more prominent - we're currently working on a proposal where we plan to apply these methods, I think it becomes more common in epi-research, where you often have observational data, but still some kind of "intervention" or "treatment" characteristic that interests you.

btw, we should ask Ben Bolker if he could add modelbased to the mixed models task view, too.
