Ooh, I understand now!

Yes, I see.

Oooh: a live example is more than a thousand words: thanks!

OK: can we consider this bug report (wishlist) as the "official" one for
that feature? :-)
Can I retitle it to better reflect the upcoming implementation and
assign it to you?
Actually I dont' know if there is some written or unwritten convention
in Guix or GNU about bug assignment, I don't want to put pressure on
you!

Yes, absolutely yes: thank you!
Happy hacking! Gio'
