I guess you're right and that's something I've just left when I should
have cleaned it. We need to find which extension is providing which
feature, and we need feature names to be globally unique. I'll remove
extoid from this index in the next revision on the patch.
I'm not in a position to provide that next revision just now, that would
happen before the end of the week though.

You might be right that a feature is more than just a unique name but as
things are, that's their only useful property.

Can you provide me the test case you've been using? That looks like a
bug I need to fix, indeed (unless the problem lies in the test case,
which would mean I need to tighten things some more).
