Comment (by danieliser):

 I think the solution may be simple. What if you simply take a page out of
 the PHP do_shortcode book. The inner content of a typical shortcode is
 simply processed again (recurring) until no further shortcodes are
 detected.

 Is there a way that on completion of a single view render (IE the [a]
 shortcode above) then the inner content should then be passed back through
 again. Guarantees that all rendering is done correctly and the output
 should perfectly match that of do_shortcode.

 Also in the case of the OP's issue, an AJAX render function may go much
 further. I believe that that should be doable without hacks, so maybe that
 could be the solution here as well.
