A good number of people have pointed out to me that our /packages page
crashes their browser or in general is really uncomfortable to load.
The impression would be better if we provided something which might not
be 100% done but at least does not crash/hang systems.
What's in the way to use guix-web instead of the listing we have?
Perfectionism and/or a lack of time?
