For normalization with CQN, Kasper (CQN maintainer) has example code how
to import the offset into edgeR
(http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/cqn/inst/doc/cqn.pdf).
The new shrinkage estimate provided by DSS can also be used to replace
the estimate edgeR and Hao Wu (the author of the DSS pacakge) will add
the example code to the vignette (soon hopefully, when he gets back from
vacation).
Whether these two will be included as options of functions within edgeR
can only be determined by the edgeR maintainers (Mark, Davis, Yunshun
and Gordon)
