Ah I see.  Well, using use-package-modules or use-service-modules, why
would you need to know that index of modules?

However, yeah, I agree that some modules from 'gnu' or 'guix' could be
also required.  Indeed, this video...

...is a really good start.  Maybe, it could be a starting point for
improving the manual.
