Do you think it is the best term to use?

I made Lock a separate record set. This exposes a limitation with
recutils. It is not possible to join more than two record sets together
(though they mentioned it as a goal on IRC).

I suppose the normalized version is a little less human-readable.  It
would be behind a flag, though.  Is that a reasonable compromise?

After some thought I realize that the normalized version isn't that much
more useful than the default, but it does enable things like:

---- Example ----
$ guix processes -f normalized \
  | recsel \
    -t ChildProcess \
    -j Session \
    -p PID,Session.PID \
  | recfmt '{{PID}} {{Session.PID}}'
23607 2356724713 2356725002 23576
---- Example ----

This will format all the (PID, Session) pairs. Whereas the
non-normalized version would only print one PID given the following.

---- Example ----
$ guix processes \
  | recsel -p ChildPID,SessionPID \
  | recfmt '{{ChildPID}} {{SessionPID}}'
23607 23567

I changed ChildProcess: pid: command to ChildPID and ChildCommand in the
default in a separate commit.

Thanks again,
