I agree with the changes David suggested.

Go for it!

As a bonus we could test it in a shell script when the =E2=80=98docker=E2=
=80=99 command
is available, and skip it otherwise.

As a second bonus, Someone could write a blog entry for the web site
explaining how Guix makes it super easy to create Docker images.  :-)

Thank you!
