GeoServer is making use of various extension points, yet only two of them seem to be [documented|http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/0+Extension+Points\].
A quick reference search over {{GeoServerExtensions}} gives the following list of extensions being currently used
* {{GeoServerExtensions.bean(Class<T> type)}}:
- {{org.geoserver.catalog.Catalog}}
- {{org.geoserver.config.GeoServer}}
- {{org.geoserver.security.DataAccessRuleDAO}}
- {{org.geoserver.security.GeoserverUserDao}}
- {{org.geoserver.security.DataAccessManager}}
- {{org.geoserver.platform.GeoServerResourceLoader}}
* {{GeoServerExtensions.bean(String name)}}:
- {{org.geoserver.ows.OutputStrategyFactory}}
- {{org.geoserver.wms.responses.MapDecoration}}
- {{org.geoserver.wms.responses.map.metatile.QuickTileCache}}
* {{GeoServerExtensions.extensions(Class<T> extensionPoint)}}:

- {{org.geoserver.ows.XmlRequestReader}}
- {{org.geoserver.ows.Response}}
- {{org.geoserver.ows.KvpParser}}
- {{org.geoserver.rest.RESTMapping}}
- {{org.geoserver.security.decorator.SecuredObjectFactory}}
- {{org.geoserver.wfs.WFSGetFeatureOutputFormat}}
- {{org.geoserver.wfs.TransactionElementHandler}}
- {{org.geoserver.wfs.TransactionListener}}
- {{org.geoserver.wfs.TransactionPlugin}}
- {{org.geoserver.data.DataStoreFactoryInitializer}}
- {{org.geoserver.wms.GetLegendGraphicProducerSpi}}
- {{org.geoserver.wms.responses.map.kml.RegionatingStrategyFactory}}
* {{GeoServerExtensions.extensions(Class<T> extensionPoint, ApplicationContext context)}}:
- {{org.geoserver.ows.DispatcherCallback}}
- {{org.geoserver.ows.KvpParser}}
- {{org.geoserver.wms.GetMapProducer}}
* {{GeoServerApplication.getBean(String name)}}
- {{org.geoserver.config.GeoServerLoader}}
- {{org.acegisecurity.ui.ExceptionTranslationFilter}}
* {{GeoServerApplication.getBeanOfType(Class<T> type)}}
- {{org.geoserver.web.translator.TranslationController}}
* {{GeoServerApplication.getBeansOfType(Class<T> type)}}
- {{org.geoserver.web.data.resource.DataStorePanelInfo}}
- {{org.geoserver.web.DemoLinkInfo}}
- {{org.apache.wicket.resource.loader.IStringResourceLoader}}
- {{org.geoserver.web.MenuPageInfo}}
- {{org.geoserver.web.publish.LayerConfigurationPanelInfo}}
- {{org.geoserver.web.data.resource.ResourceConfigurationPanelInfo}}
- {{org.geoserver.web.data.resource.DataStorePanelInfo}}
- {{org.geoserver.wfs.WFSGetFeatureOutputFormat}}
- {{org.geoserver.wms.GetMapProducer}}
Exactly which of them are meant for internal purposes only and which for external contributors to extend I'm not sure. Looks like a break down is needed in order to determine that and hence know what do we need to document?
