I agree with Mathieu. Having the Guix UI display a source URI that
contains non-free software is arguably steering users towards obtaining
nonfree information for practical use.
We will need to ask for input from <gnu-linux-li...@nongnu.org> before
considering this.

I'm sorry that you feel that way, but I'm afraid I must block this
proposed change until that discussion occurs.
