I have some good news!

  https://issues.guix.gnu.org/54241

Granted, it’s not a revolution, but it should fix one of the main
annoyances of ‘guix refresh’.

Regarding the “sad prerequisite”, the ‘github’ updater predates the
‘generic-git’ updater by several years, during which it was the only way
to get data for matching packages.

Actually I wonder if it’s still useful to keep.  In theory it can
provide more accurate data than the ‘generic-git’ updater; not sure if
this is the case in practice.
