I plan to keep my 1.6.4 world alongside my 1.7.2 world. I would need a custom worldgen plugin to prevent 1.7.2 stuff from appearing in my 1.6.4 world. I know there are plugins like this (I used one for beta 1.7) but assuming someone makes one, should Bukkit make it official and post it in the front page?

No, not that. I mean a custom worldgen plugin (eg. for Multiverse) that generates worlds the way 1.6.4 does, with none of the 1.7.2 biomes and features. I don't want no ugly seams on my server.
Not sure if that is allowed, need to get the default generator that is 1.6.4 bukkit. You could use worldborder however to generate the terrain and keep players inside that border
I do have worldborder. My border is set to 10k radius and the map is less than half way fully generated, and with 1.7.2 coming out I doubt players will be doing much exploring in the old world. I'd rather not waste precious SSD space, ya feel me? I'm pretty sure it's possible to make this plugin, though. Like I said before, I've seen them for older versions.
