-- Reorganize repo to use a more "standard" module layout.
-	- [github:Misterio77/nix-config](https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-config) might be a good reference for a better module layout.
-- Select entire desktop configuration via a single option and make bootable with specialisation.
-	- Give each desktop a modularized configuration that can be enabled with an option.
-	- figure out nixpkgs.lib.options.mkOption and add a string option that picks a desktop to use.
