This kind of problem absolutely should be reported as an issue in GitHub or
elsewhere.

For me as for still a pretty outside observer it seems that the main
problem of NixOS for now is lack of… let's call it specifications. I'm sure
all those issues will be addressed sooner or later when we develop
something like NixOS guidlines. Social Contract is a good thing. Policies
and recommendations how different things should be done are good too. A
fairly large project can't exists without them.
For now we just need all the complaints and problems collected somewhere.
