You could file an issue here:

https://www.postgresql.org/account/login/?next=/account/submitbug/

Ask if the developers could use the mechanisms available here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/extend-extensions.html#EXTEND-EXTENSIONS-RELOCATION

to schema qualify the objects in the extension.

Not sure if that will fly or not, but it is worth a shot.
