If we decide to go this way, I think we should start by making such
source installation optional, because there might be factors we will
be unable to consider or predict.  There's no rush and no particular
reason to make this the default soon, just because we can.

But let's discuss this on emacs-devel, not here.

TIA, and please do that on emacs-devel.
