Why? magit, geiser, paredit, emms, w3m, wget (and probably some others)
are all in 'site-lisp'. Do you think they also should be moved into
sub-directories? I don't mind but…
… as an opponent of the redundant "guix.d" part, I wouldn't put any
package inside "site-lisp/guix.d/<package>" by will (I think
"site-lisp/<package>" should be used instead!)
So I would rather leave the upstream untouched (i.e., let it put elisp
files in "share/emacs/site-lisp/mu4e"), and make our Emacs package
search for elisp files in "site-lisp" subdirs instead of
"site-lisp/guix.d" subdirs.
