Indeed, and here I would like to get some help in getting it right. No need
for you guys to code anything, but rather discuss when and if you have a
free slot of time.

Yes! Reliably is right now impossible because the goal of "bundles" would be
to pack everything that a system requires to work and right now this is
simply not specified by an ASDF file, which is a pity, but a corretable
problem nevertheless.

There are paths out of here, though, and they do not require waiting for
3.0, I believe.
