Description
Background
Sometimes we want some API feature which either is not present, or is too slow, and we have to either make complex changes to Hydra to accomodate some edge case - which typically requires some long delay, or we have to start doing hacky workarounds.
Proposal
Implement something like this https://docs.subsquid.io/reference/api-extensions.
But this is only worth doing if its super easy.
