Well, maybe Xapian is enough?

Well, if there is a tag and it is documented in the manual, then I think
it is easier. For example, assume ’moreinfo’ is this tag. And consider
I am interested in looking for some packages but I am hesitant about the
name and let say I think it is phylogeny. Then:
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/search?query=moreinfo+phylogeny
and I find ’mrbayes’ which is the one I wanted. So I resume.
Well, instead of ’rejected’, I propose ’unfinished’ or ’incomplete’ or
reuse ’moreinfo’ for that. I feel the ’rejected’ as “no way!” when it
is not the idea.
Cheers,
