Why would kicad limit
itself to what eurocircuits can do? They have optimized their process for quick 
turn prototyping and
while they document their process nicely, they are probably not a good 
reference for what can be done.

Before working on blind and buried vias dialog, please have a look at:

Currently there is no control in Kicad.

Sure, but it looks like there are some constraints on blind/buried vias 
(microvias are blind/buried
vias) depending on board houses.

So it could be worth to be able to control these constraints inside Kicad (at 
least to have a
minimal control).

We currently have a DRC which detects too small clearances and track widths:
this is most of time due to manufacturing constraints which continuously evolve.

I don't think I have enough understanding of the proposal to have an opinion. I just want to caution against creating unnecessary limitations in kicad. It really depends on the board house. I used to work for one and there were quite a few atypical techniques used for customer specific projects (many kept confidential to that customer).
