Interesting. I was also thinking that maybe we can leverage overriding mechanisms that are already available. Maybe it's possible to squeeze the HPET node into an SSDT. Maybe we need to override the whole DSDT from the command line.
We'll definitely need to override the DSDT for the applesmc device. I was thinking something along the lines of an additional DSDT binary supplied with QEMU for use when emulating apple hardware as you suggest.
The patches for qemu and seabios have been floating around. I wrote them for Q35 chipset support, but no one has gotten interested in it. But now, you are there. I'm willing to rebase/resend them.
I'd definitely be interested to see those!
Here is qemu part. I rebased and just compiled it.

This patch adds load_header option to -acpitable to load acpi table which includes acpi header. With this option and with seabios patches, alternative dsdt table can be passed to BIOS.
