What would be purpose of that? Do you plan to use some other store path so it
won't collide with Guix maintained installation on the same machine?
OTOH it may be interesting to generate only (in my case) RPM metadata
so native system's package manager can track Guix generated files and
use pre/post install scripts for interactions with Guix (to
install/remove/protect them). That would glue Guix to system even
better. Just wild idea when thinking about your idea...
