__SOURCE_LOC__ is not necessary. the nrm tool could grep nixpkgs for a
keyword as well such as src = bleedingEdgSource {..} to fill in the
updated contens.

So I'll add this to my todo list. Howewver it's not a top priority.
How to call it then? Is

src = bleedingEdgeSnapshot {
     url = ..; type = ..; groups = "..";
     snapshot = fetchurl {
       url = ..
       sha256 = ..
     }
}

a good name ?
