xz-utils is listed on our (build-)essential list [1]. Because the
package is potentially influencing the build artifacts, we're reluctant
to allow changes at this moment because corner case use case regressions
may go unnoticed for some time and require lots of work to fix (tracking
all packages that need rebuilding).

Unfortunately we haven't made up our mind yet, but to get some (albeit
limited) exposure and autopkgtest coverage (via the pseudo-excuses) [2],
I think your chances for a go are higher if the proposed package is
available in experimental.
