I'm not sure that there is a need to group extensions by version. Either 
the extension is in the extension string or it is not. If it is 
supported, then it is supported and you can use it. And if it's not 
supported, then its not supported and you can't use it. It's up to the 
IHVs to not expose inappropriate extensions (extensions that don't make 
sense with a particular version).
