[IPython-dev] Changing configuration after running

When I create a new profile, the default ipython_config.py file has 
these lines:

# A list of dotted module names of IPython extensions to load.
c.InteractiveShellApp.extensions = [ ]

[snip...]

# dotted module name of an IPython extension to load.
# c.InteractiveShellApp.extra_extension = ''

What is the difference between .extensions and .extra_extension?

Thanks,

Jason
