FTR, if wanted by the Guix project, we could also extend debbugs-gnu-guix.el. For example, loading this library could set debbugs-gnu-default-packages and debbugs-gnu-default-severities as proposed here. Best regards, Michael.

Would that conflict with a user-set debbugs-gnu-default-packages or debbugs-gnu-default-severities variables? I'm thinking of a mainly Emacs developer sometimes also dabbling with Guix, which may want to have their debbugs-gnu-default-packages set to "emacs" and the likes even if also using debbugs-guix.el. If it'd be used as a fall-back to user-specified versions, then that'd be nice, I think!

No, there's only one debbugs-gnu-default-packages or debbugs-gnu-default-severities. If you change it globally, it's used everywhere. If you have situations where you need both Emacs and Guix defaults, you could add Guix specific commands to debbugs-guix.el. Something like debbugs-gnu-patches, debbugs-gnu-package, debbugs-gnu, debbugs-gnu-usertags. Or you define a hydra (see GNU ELPA package), which sets debbugs-gnu-default-packages and debbugs-gnu-default-severities to the preferred values. Then you can call the debbugs-gnu-* commands with that hydra via the defined shortcuts. Best regards, Michael.

Then I think perhaps it's best to leave these globals documented in the manual to avoid surprising users. Thanks for the continued suggestions!
