I did something like that a few months ago:

 https://github.com/Ableton/aqt-cassowary/blob/master/src/CMakeLists.txt

However, that's not a pattern which scales I think. It requires the host to 
know too much about the hosted, and could stop working in the future (cmake 
should maybe emit an error if the LOCATION specified in an IMPORTED target 
does not exist).

Thanks,

Steve.
