As simple as this.  :-)

And I guess it=E2=80=99s also possible to select generations, delete them, =
and
switch to a specific one, as with M-x guix-generations?

Though maybe it would have to use
=E2=80=9Csudo:localhost:/run/current-system/profile=E2=80=9D (via Tramp) to=
 be able to
modify things.  Maybe it could somehow offer to gain root privileges
when performing an action?
