Not sure from the above what part exactly of the feature you want to 
turn into an extension (the code itself or the persona data), but one 
note:  In general, be careful when including new kinds of data content 
in extensions.  That creates new interfaces between LO and extensions, 
and those interfaces need to be kept compatible, which is a maintenance 
burden.
