That's what I want to do, but I'm still not sure whether the community
is behind me.  I don't want to spend days to develop a nice solution
just to find that nobody actually wants it.

I did not count formally, but so far my proposal was met with mixed
feelings.  If there is a definite, "stop talking, please just do it",
then I will do it.  My changes would include minor documentation
improvements, but most notably a context-sensitive help system that is
easy to use especially for Nix developers.
