hello prefect community, hello prefect team, i have written my own worker type and i can create work pools of this new type in prefect cloud by simply starting a worker of this type. however, i was wondering if it would be possible to register the new worker type with my prefect cloud, so that i could also create work pools via the UI, much like it can be done with blocks.

hi @Justin Trautmann - do you think your worker type would have general value for a large portion of Prefect Cloud users?

partially. we lift and shifted a highly customized version of https://github.com/anyscale/prefect-anyscale/blob/main/prefect_anyscale/infrastructure.py from agent to worker. i guess if we remove all our customization, this would be a great oss contribution. but i was rather looking for options to register this with the cloud privately, exactly like it was possible with the Infrastructure block.
so does this mean that there is currently no way to register worker types without making them public?
