In the soon to be released 8.1 version you can use the following filters to add new meta data types:

cn_family_relation_options
cn_address_options
cn_phone_options
cn_social_network_options
cn_instant_messenger_options
cn_email_options
cn_link_options
cn_date_options

Two caveats…

If a new type is added and later removed, there is no code to handle the display of the missing type.

Even though there is a filter for cn_social_network_options it is almost useless because any newly added types will not have icons unless they are added to the plugin’s icons folder.

This is a first step. What I really need to do is add “registration” helper functions that hook into these filters to make it easier to deal with from a dev standpoint.

Any way, this should be enough to let you do what you want to do.
