It just requires a different updating method. The different versions can
just be defined as separate packages (see postgresql for an example) and
the user the defines which one they want to use. They can either refer
to the package variable directly in scheme (e.g. postgresql-15) or on
the command line with the name@version syntax (e.g. postgresql@15).

I'm aware of this way. It's fisable when there is a small number of packages like for postgres. But it is very laborious for rust packages already. I would not want to do the same for more than 200 packages.
