ISTM your "nit-pick" is a good example of an embedded mail-list nugget.
Here's my wish:
If you and other developers notice (without false modesty ;-) that you
are posting a good example of something, then if you would enclose it
in guix snippet-delimiters as above, with a single prefixed line
starting with "primary-focus-subject:" and optionally followed by other
greppable (or list-matchable) sub-categories or ad-hoc words or names or tags,
then these nuggets would be easy to extract automatically, to
create a treasure-trove of searchable useful goodies.
I would hope to see useful one-liners and examples of package definition,
system configs, debugging methods, small scripts, and good info-URLs etc.
delimited and prefixed.
(The "primary-focus-subject:" of "rc1:" would permit us to invent improved
syntaxes and evolve them as "rc2" etc until we settle on a canonical set
for primary foci, (and PEG grammar for the rest, if we want to get fancy).
Perhaps the servers could have a gem-and-nugget-bot authoring an html
blog of these things, with automatic attibutions etc from email headers?
