One possible solution for right now is transparency. Since tokens now support alpha channels, you can make a token that looks 1x2 but is really 2x2. But I can see TSPs desire for things that spill outside the square.
For instance, sometimes if I make a top down token for a warrior with a 10ft long pike, it looks poor being compressed down to a 5ft square. It would be nice if the warriro fit in the square, but his pike extended outside of it.
