I would suggest something like:
This view does not display customized options until the extension
module that defines them has been loaded by the backend process
executing the query (e.g., via shared_preload_libraries, the LOAD
command, or a call to a user-defined C function). For example, since
the archive_library is only loaded by the archiver process, this view
will not display any customized options defined by archive modules
unless special action is taken to load them into the backend process
executing the query.
