Agree. Maybe we could provide a hint like:
gnu/system/examples/desktop.tmpl
(packages (cons* nss-certs ;for HTTPS access
gvfs ;for user mounts
;; Following packages recommended to be installed
;; per-user with `guix package -i PACKAGE'.
;; Otherwise uncomment them to install globally.
;;
;; icecat ;GNU version of the Firefox browser
;; libreoffice ;office suite
;; Basic administrator tasks
%base-packages))

When I saw a lightweight-desktop template for the first time, there was
a good ad about ratpoison window manager which I didn't know before.
This is a really good way to promote reasonable software. :-)
Oleg.
