If dired-async-each is not even intended to be customizable, I cannot think of too many other options to use this variable in a meaningful way. Anyway, in real life I expect that according to Murphy's Law whatever customization a user chooses for this variable, next time he or she needs to run dired-do-async-shell-command, the customized value will be the wrong one.
