New description:

 since they are ~effectively specialized `RunSql` operations it would be
 nice if they support `hints=...` as well.  at sentry we utilize this in
 our database router to properly target sql-like operations during
 migrations.  without hints we don't know what database to apply the
 migration operation to

 something like:

 {{{
 operations = [BtreeGistExtension(hints={'tables': ['sentry_whatever']})]
 }}}

 (and updating the `allow_migrate(...)` calls inside `CreateExtension`)
