Eventually, I would like to do something similar to the QQ register class: Model the constraint as pseudo-super-registers R0_R1, R2_R3, ...

So far, this requires pseudo-instructions and tedious register class definitions. It also affects register allocation compile time by creating more register aliases.

Until these problems can be resolved, your solution is fine.
