I don't have plans to add that in my channel (I don't use it), but if
someone packages it and gets it to work, I'd be happy to take a PR.

I doubt it will ever land in the main Guix channel since distributing
software whose sole purpose is to download and install software in
binary form seems to me to be contrary to the Guix philosophy. That
said, there is no good reason someone couldn't package it and include it
in another channel.
