What happened?
https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/tasks/install-packages-from-pypi.html#install-with-extras-support shows an example like the following:
conda install 'package[extras="EXTRA"]'However, if I try to do that, it accepts the extra but doesn't add any additional packages to the solve:
(C:\Users\DYeaw\Projects\conda\devenv) PS C:\Users\DYeaw\Projects\conda> python -m conda create -p $env:Temp\httpx 'httpx[extras="cli"]' -c conda-forge -c conda-pypi --override-channels

zstd conda-forge/win-64::zstd-1.5.7-h534d264_7I would expect that the cli extra for httpx would install click, pygments, and rich per their pyproject.toml. This is the same list of packages I get without the extras.
