The list of Planeswalker subtypes is entirely seperate from that of creature subtypes. Therefore, adding a new Planeswalker subtype to this to prevent the planeswalker uniqueness rule from coming into effect is not necessary. If this imprints a Goblin, another Goblin coming out will have no effect on it, because the planeswalker uniqueness rule doesn't care about Goblins. This is the same reason Gideon Jura can become a creature and suffer no ill effects from other Humans or Soldiers.
The problem with this card is that turning a permanent into a planeswalker has no inherent benefits. It makes that permanent vulnerable to attack and damage, and, in this case, immediately sends it to the graveyard as a state-based action, since it has no loyalty counters. Flavorfully, it's a fun and intriguing idea. It just doesn't play out well mechanically.
Added versatility.
"CARDNAME counts as a Wall (of text, what else?)"
If you read the last paragraph, you can see why it's like that
Weell... in that that's where 70% of the text is, yeess... but that's not really an excuse for tinier-than-Ice Cauldron text. This is heading closer to Keyword Ultimus territory.
If you really want to grant planeswalker abilities, how about a cycle of five cards (at uncommon or rare), one in each colour granting an ability affiliated with that colour?
