Well, your proposition also includes adding a bunch of code to the
files unit (that relies on unit posix, which is likely
a no-go in and of itself).

Here's my humble suggestion: Move your file-install and file=? code
directly into your install.scm script, and we'll make the install.scm
script available from the downloads page as an option.
