Oh, then I agree - as long as the qtwebengine package (or any package, really)
cannot be accidentially installed if known vulnerabilities exist.

You do now :)

In this specific case I vote for either removing the package or patching it
that it does QDesktopServices::openUrl() as it should. If it were up to me I'd
remove it. But maybe people use it - so they, if any, can patch it. It entails
changing about 5 lines (commenting one block out and re-enabling the other
block that is already there).
That reminds me, is there something like Gentoo's "/etc/portage/package.mask"
in Guix where I can (permanently) specify packages that I don't want to be
installed - as a resolved dependency or otherwise? Some way I can nuke a
package variable permanently?
Like
guix build --with-input=texmaker=bash something
but permanently for all guix commands...
