I'd suggest implementing the custom datatype first and packaging it
separately (say, via pgFoundry) -- it can always be moved into the core
distribution at some later point, if and when it has been proven stable
and is in wide use.

(I'm not sure that those conditions will ever be met, mind you -- but
arguing for its inclusion in the main sources prior to even having begun
implementing it is unlikely to convince anybody.)
