For the ‘store’ parameter you mean? We could add one, but this is a
convention shared by (guix derivations) and (guix packages), so I’m not
sure docstrings should be “cluttered” this way.

I agree we should be caution with this sort of names, but I’ve
considered it OK. There’s a tension between the length and expressivity
of a name.
