TYPO3 Change extension builder default extension location path from typo3conf/ext to some other path

I use extension builder for creating my extensions in TYPO3 V 6.1.1. The default location where the extensions are stored is in typo3conf/ext/ folder.

I would like to change this location to some other path, say /MyExtensions/MyExtName. From this location I'll give symbolic links to ext/ folder.

The problem is changing the default location of extensions from typo3conf/ext/ to /MyExtensions/MyExtName.

How do I do this ?

EDIT

Is it possible to create a directory MyExtensions under typo3conf/ext/ and then MyExtensions will contain all my custom-made extensions. It's just that it'd be easy to have extensions organized this way. My custom extensions would be in typo3conf/ext/MyExtensions/MyExtOne , typo3conf/ext/MyExtensions/MyExtTwo etc...

Create/Save the extension and copy&paste the content to the location you want to have them. Then create the symlink back to typo3conf/ext. It doesn't matter where the ExtensionBuilder writes the files when the target points to an other directory.

That's not possible. Also do not try to circumvent the default typo3 paths but learn to live with them.
