Yes. It just needs to be done :)
One thing that would have to be addressed, though, is that the package list
view of hpcguix-web seems to work only for JavaScript-enabled browsers. So if
you are browsing with, say, Lynx, you don't have a way to discover packages.
But I wonder if it is possible now to make the packages part use any of the
Postgres databases that already exist and allow traditional search without
JavaScript...
