We have 45 contribs (ls -l contrib | grep -c ^d), out of which:

auto_explain is shared_preload_libraries but I think could be
local_preload_libraries

pg_stat_statements is shared_preload_libraries (needs SHM)

and that's it

So my reading is that currently the only contrib module that needs more
than a server reload is pg_stat_statements, because it needs some shared
memory. Am I missing anything?

Ok, now I'll add the custom_variable_classes setting to the control
files in the extension's patch for the contribs that expose some of
them.
