The extensions problem is a matter of tweaking method resolution rules. So, while there could be some impact on IP itself (some way to indicate the set of extensions to use) I think most of the work would best be done in the DLR (take that information and use it to perform the binding).
I half-heartedly tried to hack this in some time ago, but ran across what appeared to be a DLR bug. Showed it to someone on the team but I don't know where it went afterward. Incidentally, there is a difference (from what I've seen) to what a DLR "extension" is compared to a .NET 3.5 "extension".
