You misread: there is no channel involved.

Considering this patch, if an user does not want to run *any* checker
for whatever reason, then this user has at hand two means:

 + guix lint --exclude
 + rely on the ’properties’ field directly in package definition

Considering this patch, all the checkers for each package are clearly
displayed.

And this patch adds also the option ’--dry-run’.  Therefore, if one does
not want to read the manual, that’s a good mitigation.

Cheers,
