AIUC, this list of changes is displayed once and then ‘lost’ (to 
the average user) when they clear their screen, right?

Or is there a command that returns this nice list of differences 
between two guix-profiles that we could suggest running when the 
default is truncated?  It could default to current and current-1, 
and would solve both (minor) irritations.

Am I making sense?
