StumpWM is a window manager which has optional, community contributed,
modules you can use. I went to go add these to Guix and discovered
they're already present albeit with confusing names.
For example, `sbcl-stumpwm-pass` is simply `sbcl-pass`. This limits
discoverability, and suggests that these packages are more broadly
useful than they are (as far as I know they are only useful within the
context of StumpWM).
Can I get a +1 from someone appropriate to rename these packages to be
prepended with `sbcl-stumpwm-`?

In the case of sbcl-pass, at least, you're just fixing a typo/bug:
the variable is already named sbcl-stumpwm-pass, its NAME should
match. No +1 needed for that.
But +1 nonetheless.
Kind regards,

It looks like all the contrib modules are this way. My guess is that it
might be because this is what the Common Lisp system names are.

Thank you!
They also all independently declare the same source repository they come
from, so I think I'll establish an inheritance pattern there.

I don't use StupmWM, but this makes sense to me, so +1!
:)
