What would be cool would be to file those request to the trac.videolan.org/vlc website.

Good idea. I just submitted it.

Thanks.

I think it would be great if extensions automatically showed up in the Hotkey preferences page. So you can assign a hotkey for opening and closing an extension just like any other action. And once an extension is open and has focus it would be nice to accept key presses in the .lua code, instead of ...
