Install Quarto extensions globally
Is there a way to install Quarto extensions globally?
If I follow the installation instruction from https://quarto.org/docs/extensions/managing.html and e.g. use
quarto add quarto-ext/fontawesome
to install an extension, I have to do this from the same folder as my current project is in and the extension will only be available for files in this folder.
Is there a way to make them available to all projects, no matter in which folder they are saved?
My current workaround is to copy the _extensions folder to a central location and then add a symlink to this folder every time I'd like to use one of the extensions in a project.

This is probably not a lasting solution, but one can manually copy the individual folders of the extensions to
<path to your quarto installation>/share/extensions/quarto/
Documents seem to be able to find them from there, but I doubt they will survive future updates.
