There are hooks available in the map-reduce version of item similarity to put an arbitrary user distance in. This only works well if there are sparsity constraints that limit the number of distances that need to be computed, but if it works, it can be really excellent. This would allow you to put your distances in and still use an indicator-based recommender.
