I didn't even know I wanted this, but after seeing it, makes 100% sense!

What an incredibly good idea.

Edit: Looks like there is some existing (partial) competition from pgxn: https://manager.pgxn.org/about

pgxn is a network of extensions but is far from being an extension manager. An extension manager would IMHO include building the extensions, distributing built artifacts, and managing their lifecycle (upgrade/delete etc.) This is the gap that pgxman tries to fill. When you run `pgxman install EXTENSION`, it installs the prebuilt extension to your system.
