Is a FOP extension a candidate for this? I just started looking into exactly what they are and how they work but the general concet of making a new tag outside the FO namespace seems like it could be a good fit for the postscript commands.
Thoughts?

The way we achieve this is to post-process the generated postscript with a
custom program.
