</div></div>Sure, with sorting in place we can ignore the previous (original)<br>
comments. The bsearch will bring some benefit only as one overrides<br>
extensions or there is some other place that I'm missing ?<br>
<span class=""><br></span></blockquote><div><br></div><div>That's the only place where it is applicable unfortunately. For that reason, I did not implement the code for that functionality. Most of the benefit IMO comes from helping developers insert new extensions in the correct positions.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><span class="">

Please don't be shy/afraid/too polite to call me and others out. If we<br>
have X "for" and Y "against" just draw the line and (explicitly) say<br>
which one you're going with. Otherwise one can never know if they came<br>
