Thanks, I've pushed this patchset.

I agree that there may be too much buttons for a new user, but I
wouldn't like to hide features by default. For users, there is
'guix-package-info-format' variable. It is a bit complicated but it
allows to control any aspect of *Guix Package Info* buffer. For
example, one could hide all non-essential info like this:
(setq guix-package-info-format
'(guix-package-info-insert-heading
(outputs ignore guix-package-info-insert-outputs)))
