It is a much larger superset of that list. There's a lot of entries there
that provide support in various ways, but not core code customizations.
You cannot expect anyone not already involved in the community to have any
idea which of those companies have any track record of getting new
features implemented.

Maybe all that's needed is to extend the "provides" section there with a
tag for those who are willing to take that sort of work on.
