I propose this as https://oeis.org/draft/A227859

As I write in the comment, this could be done for other ranges instead
of {0,...,9}.
Unless I'm wrong, {0,1} and {0,1,2} are not possible,
but {0,2} could be possible, viz
0,0,2,0,0,2,*0,0,2,0,0,2,...
or
0,0,2,0,0,2,*2,0,0,2,...
At the point *, two choices are possible, I think the second one is the better
(since we "used up" already the second pair 0,0, it should be the turn
of the second pair 2,2)
but the first yields a lexicographically smaller sequence having as
many 2's than 0's (though they have only half the density).
The range {0,1,2,3} would correspond to
0,0,1,2,1,3,2,0,0,3,1,2,1,3,2,0,0,3,1,2,1,...
