They don’t let users specify the endpoints as such, but closely enough.
For instance, the ‘interface’ field of <bitlbee-configuration> is used
to build it endpoint, and similarly for ‘openssh’ and ‘dicod’.

Overall, it seems to me we don’t need a first-class <endpoint> type in
Guix System itself.

I hope that makes sense!
