How do I find out which Extensions use the Credentials Vault?

This is a follow on question to - [RFE] Extend the use of Credential Vault to Dynatrace Hub Extension 2.0 - Dynatrace Community
Having enabled the Extension Vault within Extensions 2.0, it appears that each Extension needs to make use of the Vualt within its code - hence the question.
Which standard Dynatrace Developed Extensions use the Extenion Vault?
Is there a list I can look at?
It doesn't appear to be shown in the Hub?
Is there a timescale for all of them to use the Credential Vault?

The use of the vault depends on the extension. There's really no way of knowing whether an extension will use it without installing it and deploying a configuration. This function is quite recent, which is why most extensions don't use it yet.

For example, this one uses a vault (or a classic login) :

Thanks @jegron - wouldn't it be great if this was shown as a piece of data in the Hub?
