While it might be an interesting feature to provide for future Elisp
packages, its immediate usefulness is much less obvious, so the kind of
compile-time linking model we use for things like libgnutls would not be
appropriate (e.g. Debian wouldn't want to add nacl as a dependency if
it's not actually used).

OTOH that might be a good motivation to add support for dynamic loading
of extension libraries.
