Yes but there could be an internal API provided by cmTarget to compute the
expansion in one place for use by any generator.  I really think that all
property values should be handled in the same way and interpreted in their
non-string format only as needed.

Initialization from the
directory property value can just be added to cmTarget::SetMakefile:

this->SetPropertyDefault("INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES", 0);

SetPropertyDefault is for initializing a property with the content of the

Sorry, my bad.  You're right, except that it looks for a *variable* with the
CMAKE_ prefix.  Instead you can just spell out initialization of the target
property by copying the current value of the directory property.
