This is my preference, and there is precedent for this in Guix
already. I know of emacs-protobuf-mode and emacs-erlang which are
separate packages, but which reference the source of an existing
package (with (package-source protobuf) and (package-source
erlang), respectively).
I like how easy it is to discover Emacs packages by looking for
the emacs- prefix. Mu and notmuch already violate that prefix
expectation, moving their elisp into a separate output would be
further hiding the Emacs modes.
