[Nix-dev] What about a emacs package attr?

I was looking for a way to find all emacs packages.
While searching all-packages for emacs is nice you still get many fals
hits.

I was looking for a package remembering keyboard inputs (m-x
somecommand) on restart.

This seems to be what I'm looking for:
http://emacs-session.sourceforge.net/

I don't like adding yet another top level attribute for that.

How do you think about having one

emacsPackages = recurseIntoAttrs ( import ... )

?

This way it's much easier to find existing packages.

Does someone object?

We've done so as well for perl packages recently.
