I would consider skipping the stem-to-seatpost solution and going for an extra 'headtube'
How come? Wouldn't the alu stem be lighter and give you more options for adjusting length then an extra headtube?
(Although I can't for the life of me work out how you get it on/off)
Edit: its steel and I think it's brazed on so ignore me.

I would consider skipping the stem-to-seatpost solution and going for an extra 'headtube' and use this for both structure/strength and stem holder. Maybe... ;-)
