 > Is it possible to make this work via existing filters?

 Implementing multiple orderby values is not too difficult to implement.
 Doing the independent variation where some fields are ASC and some DESC
 would be considerably harder to put into the API. I am pretty sure you can
 do both by using multiple filters in the API.

 > Another question: do other object types (`WP_Comment_Query` etc) support
 this?

 From a quick look, it appears that only the standard `WP_Query` object
 supports multiple and independent orderby parameters.
