These files are not geospatially enabled though. These files would be in 
EPSG:404000. I got around the other issue I've been having with EPSG:404000 by 
configuring EPSG:32662 instead.

Should I continue this practice and fool Geoserver into allowing me to upload 
these kinds of files? Of course, these files will have bounds that greatly 
extend past the normal Lat/Long boundaries if I do this...

Hum... I guess that in order to retrive meta-information about the file at some 
point the file is fully decompressed into
memory.
PNG is possibly the worst raster format I can think of in terms of performance, 
in order to read even a small portion
of it it has to be fully decompressed and loaded in memory.
Save yourself a lot of trouble and use gdal_translate to turn these files into 
GeoTiff ones, eventually internally
compressed (DEFLATE if you want to avoid quality loss)

Have a look at this presentation:
