Hmm, isn't it more like a profile? I mean it would work the way above but
there's (presumably) some reason why SOME-PACKAGE was an extra package.
We don't have to use the /run/current-system/profile for that, it could be
a new one.
What are the downside of using a profile vs. using a package in that way?
