Yes it should be.
The trouble is this is not evaluated at but at CMake time when
include(CPack) is processed.

Then at CPack time the value is read from within cpack command so that
it is not evaluated either.
That's why I said:

"You may probably hand-craft you own custom_command/target for that
but  don't know how to add this to the built-in "PACKAGE" target."

I'm not using Visual Studio on a daily basis and I cannot test the scheme right
now but may be other can.
