We don't wont this EVER as a user facing function. It's something PostgreSQL upstream has expressed they don't want people running unpackaged extensions.
If you feel you need this for testing, then have as a testing function and drop it after use.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Such a function would also help testing upgrades from unpackaged, as that part is understested. For example it looks to me that the
extensions/opt_out.shis failing to unpackage theraster_columnsview
