Something is ready and has been reviewed by intrigeri on https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/bootstrapping/extension#data_source.

We should still investigate whether using JSON or YAML in such a file, depending on the problems this might cause to code the extension.

I’ve looked at it again, and sent one more suggestion (including the release notes’ URL) to tails-dev@.

Maone is fine with YAML. So we’re good with this as a start (deassigning from 1.4). Still, Feature #9386 might bring in more field to the file (link to release notes), so I’m leaving this one open.
