R equivalent of GRASS r.grow?

Question

What is a good R equivalent of the GRASS function r.grow?

The closest I've been able to find is the script suggested by whuber in response to Creating randomly shaped clumps of cells in a raster from seeds of 1 cell/pixel?, which is written to address a different problem, so I'd like to know whether there are more efficient tools to simply grow outward uniformly.

Have you solved this? I have a feeling that you could use focal{raster} to do this... I'll give it some more thought. — si_2012, Commented Jun 3, 2014 at 8:28
Still haven't solved this. Best I can come up with so far is to somehow modify the code I linked to to remove randomness (not yet implemented, but seems doable). — user1521655, Commented Jun 3, 2014 at 14:33

There is a workflow to fill in NA values by the nearest non-NA value in R here. You can easily set a maximum distance (in map units/meters).
