I also think so ;-)

This is not really for "package definitions" ("M-x guix-edit" is to move
to a particular definition), but for package location files.
Also it is not just "to navigate". Opennig a location file is a smaller
feature. *Guix Package Locations* buffer can also be used to display
packages from a particular location (similar to displaying packages from
a particular generation that you can do from *Guix Generation List*
buffer).
Finally, *Guix Package Locations* buffer is useful by itself! When you
want to look at how many packages are placed in this or that location.
So I would still prefer a more general «interface for package locations».

I prefer the term "package location" over "source file that define
packages". It looks simple and understandable to me, but if you insist,
I will change it.
