Sorry if it's in the wrong repo, but I noticed a problem for people who only use search.nixos.org

For example: yt-dlp has two versions, one that comes with ffmpeg and such and one without those ( -light )
But through the web interface it's not possible to actually understand the difference.
Either there needs to be something in the ui to make this diff clear or the package name should indicate the difference?
