Here’s a rebase.

I realize this probably isn’t going to happen for 17, given the freeze, but I would very much welcome feedback and pointers to address concerns about providing a second directory for extensions and DSOs. Quite a few people have talked about the need for this in the Extension Mini Summits[1], so I’m sure I could get some collaborators to make improvements or look at a different approach.

Best,

David
