There isn't any provision for arbitrary data to be passed through the manifest presently. While it may be possible, I suppose, for you to write code to look at the SC manifest and parse additional things you add out (since it is not based on a validated schema definition), such a usage would be completely unsupportable as it's a side-effect of the currently very limited implementation, not an interface, and we'd reject any bugs related to such usage.
