I wouldn't like to answer for any other SNMP implementation.
You'd really have to ask the relevant developers how their
implementations work.

   But it doesn't really make much sense to use an AgentX
GetBulk request with individual instance registrations (which
is effectively what a row registration boils down to).

   The GetBulk request is only useful when the subagent has
registered a complete subtree (a table, a group of scalar objects,
or something higher).   If the master agent knows exactly what
OIDs are valid, then it's just as easy to convert the SNMP
GetBulk request into a series of AgentX GET requests.
