Please submit it to to emacs-devel@gnu.org, via M-x report-emacs-bug, or
directly to me.  We usually welcome new packages in GNU ELPA.

There is currently no specific support for that, but your package is not
unique in this respect and I'd be happy to extend package.el to provide
better support for that.  Also there are ways to "abuse" the current
system to get what you want, so you don't have to wait for a new
package.el to be widely deployed.
