I finished writing this before realizing I should have checked how
listOf
isused in other codebases first.
I did a search for
listOf
in nixpkgs codebase, and none of the results onthe first page make use of
listOf
in a way that the default values should beextended. (in fact, almost all of them set
default = []
)With that in mind, I'm not sure if what I wrote in this PR is good practice or
just a hack that would just makes things more complicated down the line
