I mean a vendor-specific DSP/speakersafetyd/hardware chain being exposed as the onboard speaker device for certain laptops, instead of the raw device. This has never existed as an OOTB experience. In Apple's case, it's absolutely necessary to avoid blowing up the speakers - hence why they disabled speaker output before the audio chain was done.

It is exactly like that on the Nokia Internet tablets. Speaker protection is literally the role of xprot, which is integrated into pulseaudio -- "necessary to prevent the speakers from blowing out". It even depends on things like the ambient temperature.
