Ah, thanks.

So, something like this?

(simple-service 'nnn-service-type
                home-environment-variables-service-type
                `(("NNN_BMS" . "d:$HOME/Documents;D:$HOME/Docs archive/")
          ("NNN_SSHFS" . ,(string-append sshfs "-o reconnect,idmap=user")) ; 
reference sshfs from store somehow
          ("NO_COLOR" . 1)
          ...))
