Right. Or, to add further precision, embedding @extschema@ persistently in
the system catalogs does make the extension nonrelocatable. The OP examples
merely embed @extschema@ in extension scripts, and they don't impair
relocation. I'm okay with the proposal, but I still wouldn't mind deprecating
relocatable=true.
