This seems like a very hard problem. Since your sequencer is "just
that: a sequencer", you'll also need plugin hosts and/or standalone
synths too, which understand either MIDI tuning or OSC. (One
OSC-driven plugin host, Om, has been mentioned already). The majority
of standalone synths and plugins will probably never be able to play
anything other than a conventional tuning, so that's a problem, unless
you're happy to write a few of your own.
(By the way, re VST, some existing synths and/or plugin hosts can host
VST, but again most VSTs expect MIDI or MIDI-style commands and
implicitly assume a conventional tuning.)
I'd love to see a general-purpose OSC sequencer, and I'm sure others
would too, so keep me informed if you're thinking of taking this
approach, and maybe I can help out in some way.
