As described at the bottom of this page, we should probably accept custom licenses using the LicenseRef identifier.

I'd prefer to use the PKGBUILD method of custom:name https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD#license

I like that as well. Maybe also require that non-standard licenses have the full text included in the package.
