Hi,

I am chiming in belatedly, I see, after the concept is well-approved.
But I just wanted to add anyway that that this would be great for Nix.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/15244#discussion_r4474714305
where I was just happy to first learn that this was in flight.

Cheers, and good luck getting it across the finish line,

John
