Would it make sense to have a 'nixos-stable' channel that points to
whatever channel is stable?


It's kinda a weird concept, as there would be breaking changes whenever it
switched between releases but I do see the use of a more tested stream then
nixos-unstable. Maybe it would be a channel with breaking changes but "no"
broken packages?

I would love to hear what people think about this.
