Utility this package has for you

I think cosmic epoch has a big potential, and I really want to try it out. I know it is available in the chaotic AUR as well.
But I know it is one bigger task, so I would understand if its to much work to implement all the necessary packages.
But there is some interest on packaging the cosmic desktop in the nixos community:
NixOS/nixpkgs#199563
https://www.reddit.com/r/NixOS/comments/ulugik/how_to_install_poposs_cosmic_desktop_environment/
And other than that there is some work done already:
pop-os/cosmic-comp#53

This one we'll be interesting to add indeed, but needs some strategizing before doing it, so I'll need some time.

There's a PR open for Nixpkgs to add COSMIC, maybe we can do something like cosmic-git?

That helps A LOT, and the author is great!

Closing this, don't have time to do it myself, if someone is that much interested, please open a PR instead (I'll keep building & updating it afterwards).
