It has pros and cons as you write, but I think it’s a neat hack! I’ve been thinking we should have a way to hook importers and updaters directly to the command-line interface to facilitate this kind of experimentation. Say: guix package --importer=elpa -i something which would import ‘something’ and its dependencies on the fly. Ludo’.
