I'll add support for meta.maintainers to Hydra.  (BTW, currently nix-env ignores
meta field that are not strings.  So lists of strings won't show up in nix-env
-q --meta.)

BTW, it's still possible to pass commonly used maintainers without adding an
extra argument by squeezing them somewhere into lib, i.e.

  meta.maintainers = [stdenv.lib.maintainers.eelco];
