Ah. Yeah, it would be nice if Spotlight were designed with this case in mind.
I think they'd recommend creating a parallel tree of dummy files of your own type so Spotlight can run your generator on something, but if you support moving arbitrary files to arbitrary locations that will lead to syncing nightmares and still won't get you "Get Info" support.
Sorry. Spotlight's design is at odds with what you want, which does sound useful. Do file a bug at http://bugreport.apple.com explaining what you want to do and why Spotlight doesn't work for you.
