With a simple change of the string type in strc-reg.mkiv you can also use commands/style switches in \seeindex:

\def\strc_registers_insert_see_indeed#1#2#3#4% register key entry seeword
  {\begingroup
   ...
        entries = {
            % we need a special one for xml, this is just a single one
-           "\currentregisterentries", "#2"
+           \!!bs\currentregisterentries\!!es, "#2"
        },
        seeword = {
-           text = "\currentregisterseeword"
+           text = \!!bs\currentregisterseeword\!!es
        },
     }
   }}%
   \endgroup}
