I'm really curious what this script is that you are making, that you want to make changes which are not part of the undo tree and are not repeatable with '.'. What sort of changes do you think people would want to have these characteristics?
Vim does have the ":undojoin" command which allows you to do something like:
convert to hex output with xxd
make a change to the hex
convert back to binary
all in one change, so to the user it looks like (in terms of undo/redo) a single change.
If you have a complicated script you want to run to "repeat" a change with '.', you can check out the repeat.vim utility plugin on vim.org.
