I'd think that be a great option to pursue, although it's more work more thoughts. Perhaps it could work along these lines (brainstorming) I like the idea to leave the original, potentially manually written file in place and complement it with a declarative counterpart. The same would also have benefited /etc/guix/acl, which suffers from the same ambiguity. -- Thanks, Maxim
