Without ASCII art:
We have P(MX), a P(vMX), a PE1 (QFX5100), and PE2 (QFX5100),
all with ISIS, MPLS, RSVP/LDP, BGP underlay, cluster and multipath.
The (EVPN) broadcast is handled by the P's but once that
discovery is done, the traffic passes between the PE's without bouncing
thru the P's.
Good enough for what it is.
Must be the same deal with VPLS.
Caveats: Can't mix EVPN and/or L2 and/or CCC on the same port.
Right now EVPN+CCC works for our lab, but it must be a fluke.

How do you handle 10G port licensing on the 5048? That gets expensive
quickly. I've got about 75 qfx's deployed as PE devices right now because
of the 5048 port licenses.
The major limitation of the qfx as a PE device is that it doesn't support
VPLS. It does however do EVPN over vxlan, which can be stitched to a vpls
instance if needed on an MX, at least according to Juniper. I've not yet
tried it.
On the very few instances where I've absolutely had to deliver a VPLS type
service, I've been able to bring L2circuits back to a 480 and stitch them
all to a bridge-domain there. Not optimal, but it works.

The qfx's do L3vpn and l2circuits nicely, with RSVP/LDP, BGP, and ISIS.

Not to change subject too much, but, In case you are wanting to extend your
mpls cloud (I'm assuming your MX core is mpls-enabled) further out into the
aggregation/access edge, you could go with the qfx-5100 cousin... acx5048.
I've been pretty pleased with them.
I've deployed 30 or 40 of these now in my network with as cisco asr9k core.
