I don't think pg_dump believes that pg_trigger rows can belong to an
extension; and I'm dubious of the concept too.  What I was wondering about
was whether those rows had proper dependencies on (a) the functions and
(b) their owning tables.

Basically what you need to end up with is

* trigger function has a membership dependency on the extension

* pg_trigger row has a normal dependency on the trigger function it uses

* pg_trigger row has an auto dependency on the table it's for

If you're using SQL commands to create the trigger then I'd expect the
latter two to be handled automatically; but it sorta sounds like you're
doing something pretty low-level and perhaps omitting these steps.

Note: depending on what it is you're trying to accomplish, it might be
saner for the pg_trigger rows to have auto dependencies on their trigger
functions.  Depends whether you'd like DROP EXTENSION to complain or just
shut up and drop the triggers.
