<para>
The <code>connect_extended</code> methods work the same as the <methodname>connect</methodname>
methods, except they take slots of type <classname>extended_slot_type</classname>.
This is useful if a slot needs to access the connection between it and the
signal invoking it, for example if it wishes to disconnect or block its own connection.
