It looks like it is not possible to register a custom muxer outside of
the list in allformats.c, or do I miss something? (OTOH it would be
useful if one wants to registers a custom component, but this seems to
be disabled at the API level).

The simple alternative is to simply not to document the muxer,
although I don't like it very much, given that is output in the muxers
list, so I think at least we want to mention that this is only used
for testing.
