Enable non-validated extension for my viewers
As a developer that loves creating new ways of interacting with my viewers there are things that would benefit from using the extension system but that would be way too specific to my stream to be validated for everyone.
As far as i know, the only ways of having an extension enabled for my viewers is either to go through the validation process or whitelist every users one by one.
Maybe i'm mistaken, but I don't think twitch would validate an extension if other users cannot actually use it, and whitelisting the viewers one by one is not viable at all.
Is there a reason why it's impossible to have an extension i made avaiable for my viewers without those two options ?
I believe this would open up new creative interactions.

Uhoh, I have plans to make an extension that will only be usable with a bot I'm making, which might be fine, but I didn't know it was troublesome to get an extension out there.
Guess I should look into the validation process, but if nothing else, if a _channel_ could whitelist the extension instead of viewers, that would probably be enough for me.
