Replay cannot be encoded in standard PGN, it needs new UI elements, coordination between 2 games.
Overall I have the gut feeling it's very hard to do.

Bughouse chess can be encoded in BPGN (Bughouse Chess Portable Game Notation), an extension to PGN, however. Maybe this could be explored?

See http://bughousedb.com/Lieven_BPGN_Standard.txt for the standard.

I know that it would be difficult, but it would be so fun! Please, at least consider adding this.
