Your idea seems user friendly, but to implement it we would have to find 
a way to distinguish library-packages from other packages. I'm not sure 
how to programmatically distinguish if a package has a bin-output.

Right now you have to investigate the different outputs yourself e.g. by 
running:

$ guix package --show=gtk+

which lists the different outputs.
