ACK

What I was missing when searching for extensions was an indication when an
extension was derived from another one. Of course in most cases it would
even be better not to derive an extension and extend it, but to extend the
original extension. But there seem to be enough reasons not to do so, so it
could help when evaluating extension to know which one is derived from an
interesting extension whithout reading the documentation of all possible
candidates.
