I agree that "Extender" doesn't sound right. "Extension" would
probably be the right part of speech, but that has multiple meanings
that might confuse the issue. (Does CREATE EXTENSION take the
relation extension lock? And don't forget PostgreSQL extensions to
the SQL standard!)
I'm wondering if we ought to use something like "Custom" instead, so
that we'd end up with ExecInitCustom(), ExecCustom(), ExecEndCustom().I think that would make it more clear to the
casualreader that this
is a hook for user-defined code.
Other bike-shedding?
