1 year ago "make the extensions associated with the language be user configurable" if you mean file extensions can already be achieved by users setting files.associations. Have you considered using this setting?
If extension provides required languages than initial implementation it can be docs with setting to copy-paste example configuration. IIRC extensions have an API to update settings, so it should be possible to provide simple action to set configuration by user action if needed.
I'm working on a language extension for an embeddable programming language (https://github.com/facebookexperimental/starlark-rust). Different embedders of this language will have different patterns that they use for their files. I'd like to make the extensions associated with the language be user configurable, but I can't find a way to specify the extension/filenames except in the extension manifest.
