I’d rather not make this kind of change.  In general, I think we should
be very conservative about changes to the daemon and its protocol,
because that’s the common denominator of all the versions of Guix.

If we change something like it, then we’ll get subtle breakage depending
on the version of the daemon in use.

WDYT?

Ludo’.
