It can. I would move away from strictly C++ though, and think about
something like CORBA IDL. The Fresco distribution, and the ILU
distribution contain stubbers for C++ that compile IDL->C++. I have
been toying around with a C version that generates VSTa servers.

Have a look at CORBA IDL. You would do the VSTa community a great
service if you could create an IDL->C/C++ compiler that used VSTa's
native functionality (namer, messaging etc.)
