I don't see how that is not already the case. Built-in in LibreOffice, we have
HSQLDB 1.8 and (when experimental features are enabled) Firebird available, and
the new database wizard gives the choice between the two. Any patch / extension
adding a driver should also add the corresponding choice to the wizard.

Hmm... Maybe you mean that there is no mechanism for an extension to "plug in"
into the wizard to add the choice, it can only be done from LibreOffice code
proper?

BTW, have you considered integrating your embedded-SQLite and
embedded-recent-hypersql to LibreOffice proper rather than having them as
extensions? As long as the recent-hypersql one doesn't break compatibility with
existing embedded HSQLDB databases (e.g. it uses a separate URI, e.g.
sdbc:embedded:hsqldb2) and it manages compatibility across future HSQLDB
versions sanely (e.g. it uses a different URI for each incompatible version of
the data store of HyperSQL, or something different to discuss), I see no
technical obstacle to integration.
