Thinking about this a bit more, it probably wouldn't be *too* hard / complex / dangerous to at least pre-populate custom part with the appropriate 'special' partitions for your disk: i.e. run a restricted version of autopart automatically when entering the custom part spoke, which doesn't create the /boot and swap and / partitions, but just any partitions required for booting or other special circumstances.
