I've tried to, but the extension directory is hardcoded. Nix has this
patch for postgresql:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/servers/sql/postgresql/specify_pkglibdir_at_runtime.patch
With this, we could add a field to the postgresql configuration that
would take a list of extension packages and set the environment
variable accordingly. The patch only allows one path though. Do you
think it's worth it to adjust it and allow more paths?
