Two easily confused with "extension module" in the sense of a Python
module written in C.

Well remember there are two types of projects we're talking about here:

1) Projects that adhere to some yet-to-be-determined standards set out
by the Sage project, and that in return are promoted as extra, if not
more specialized products built on Sage, included in
Sage-the-distribution, and possibly used in continuous integration
with Sage as well.  Those would deserve a special name "affiliated
package" or the like.

2) Packages that happen to "import sage" somewhere.  Those I agree are
Python packages (that depend on sage).

Best,
Erik
