Okay for me, but I don't know what the others think, as you will be the
first, who would like to use just a nickname.

To avoid conflicts.  For example, both (gnu packages compression) and
(guix licenses) modules export 'zlib' variables, so we need to
distinguish them somehow.  That's why there is a prefix: just 'zlib'
means a package and 'license:zlib' means a license.

Sorry, I didn't mean that the first lines should also be changed.  So a
full commit message would be:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
gnu: Add sxhkd.

* gnu/packages/xdisorg.scm (sxhkd): New variable.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

No need to resend the patches, I will fix it and push soon if there will
be no other comments.
