Pardon me for misunderstanding then.  For what it's worth, I do not
read that quote as "let's use raw hashes without context", though, I
think it makes the much weaker statement that we ought to bind the
commit field to a value that is actually a commit (as opposed to a
branch or a tag).  Throughout Guix this has mostly meant let-binding a
revision/commit pair.

Fair enough, it was mentioned that we ought to RFC here and Tobias also
mentioned that in IRC, but it so far didn't happen.  I'm not sure
whether this is the right thread for discussion given that I'm rather
opinionated, but let's see what happens.
