One warning - Last time I interacted with the CSV datastore (in March) and GeoServer importer, it looked like it was still missing a few things. It seems the CSV datastore does not handle geometry columns especially well. CSV Import via the GeoServer importer UI only supports CSVs as lists of attributes (no geometry). Via the Importer REST API you can specify Lat/Lon columns. Support for WKT columns exists, but there is no way of actually importing/specifiying columns as WKT as far as I can see, although this might also be doable using the REST API.
A custom config panel seems like a very good idea, and should include some way to specify the Geometry column(s) (Lat/Lon or WKT). Given that Property datastores <http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/data/app-schema/data-stores.html#property-file> are supported in core GeoServer, it would make just as much sense to also include the CSV datastore in core GeoServer.
