I saw very few distinct people voting on that.
I think this is a killer feature to improve extension usage.

The use-case is very clear and confirmed (and has been explained by Dimitri
already : deploy extension in several hundreds of database without setting up
ton's of new connections, ip/user/password association, etc. just a single sql
command)
BTW I can dump everything from port 5432, except extensions (I can even run
pg_basebackup instead of rsync !).
