Better ;o) Q is then; Should we or should we not support "interception" and allow Extensions to wrap components??
Interceptions are more flexible, though a little harder to program for. The Extension stuff was used for some simple cases, of which we had already identified the requirements for.
You can implement extensions with interceptors, but not the other way. So I would not rule out interceptors for the long haul.
