Are users going to be required to run guix-home with some kind of home gnome service in order to use Gnome? Or is there any other plan? On systemd this is easy as the user session is started basically automatically, every user has it. But on Guix System with shepherd, users do not need to have a user instance of shepherd running at all. And the service configuration is also up to them, whereas on systemd user services are also loadable from a common system location, so that when you install packages it can provide a user service that the user can simply start from the time of the installation, no configuration on their side.
