It seems an useful feature. Added
(https://github.com/dvarrazzo/psycopg/commit/143dc2e9).

Is this really a real use case? the 'public' schema is specified in
contrib/hstore.sql so you would need to hack the installer to put the
hstore somewhere else. Even if someone did this, the oid parameter
would allow to specify the type working around the hardcoded schema in
get_oids. Then there are the casts: I assume if the installation
schema was in the search_path they would work anyway, but I haven't
done any test after seeing that the installer always put hstore in
public: if installing hstore somewhere else is really something people
do we can think about that. Otherwise I would avoid further
complicating the interface of a function with already 4 parameters.
Thank you, bye!
