@Orax, You can create a package for release candidate (rc) versions if you would like to. Suggested names e.g.:
prusa-slicer-rc-bin -or- prusa-slicer-preview-bin In package description, you can add "(preview version)" or "(release candidate)". It could provide either the latest stable or the latest preview / release candidate, whichever is newer. That package would not be considered a duplicate variant of the repo package. It is valid and allowed on AUR to have devel/alpha/beta/preview/rc whatever packages.
