haha , last month i tried to install juce to see about making an alternate graphics front end to my patches. there was some weirdness in the way you compile it then run the introjucer or somethin to update it then after the update something didn't quite work right. then there are all the old projects that use the old steinberg vst sdk which you cant get from steinberg anymore so all that is just awful. i think that there should be a really nice updated version of juce either available now or in the near future. its a tossup between fltk, qt , opengl ,juce, and processing. i just want to be able to add my waveform data filenames to the presets with a fileopen dialog without using an external, string parsing like .scl files that have 100.00 or 3/2, and polyphonic patchcords would be nice.
What about the -guicmd "cmd..." flag? Could one write a pd-gui.html that lives at localhost:1234, and have it talk to pd at its port on localhost?
Then you could just write the interface with html5 canvas, svg, javascript, or whatever.

That sounds feasible to me.
