[R] Passing a missing argument

Dear userRs,
Is there a way to explicitly set an argument to a function call as
missing?
E.g.,
histogram(foo,
bar,
endpoints=ifelse(!missing(limits),limits,NA/NULL/whatever)))
In this call I want to set a value to the endpoints argument only if the
`limits' variable has been set, and leave the defaults otherwise.
The only way I could do it is thus:
if (!missing(limits)) histogram(foo,bar,endpoints=limits)
else histogram(foo,bar)
Is there a cleaner way?
Kind regards,
David Lindelof
