 I am trying to use `Extract` on a duration field, but this results in
 `ValueError: Extract input expression must be DateField, DateTimeField, or
 TimeField.`:

 {{{
 qs = qs.annotate(
     speed=Sum(
         F('distance_in_meters') * Value(3.6) /
             Extract(F('duration_in_seconds'), 'epoch'),
         output_field=FloatField()),
 )
 }}}


 The following patch however makes it work on PostgreSQL, so it should be
 considered to be enabled there - in case other DB backends do not support
 it:

 Am I missing something?
 What needs to be done to get it enabled for DurationFields?
