Thanks, yeah, I did just that - and sent the script in on SOLR-5665 if anyone wants a copy. Script is trivial, but
you're welcome to stick it (trivial) in contrib or something if it's at all useful to anyone.

We are working on a new mode (which should become the default) where ZooKeeper
will be treated as the truth for a cluster.
This mode will be able to handle situations like this - if the cluster state
says a core should exist on a node and it doesn’t, it will be created on
startup.
The way things work currently is this kind of hybrid situation where the truth
is partly in ZooKeeper partly on each node. This is not ideal at all.
I think this new mode is very important, and it will be coming shortly. Until
then, I’d recommend writing this logic externally as you suggest (I’ve seen it
done before).

I have an environment where new collections are being added frequently
(isolated per customer), and the backup is virtually guaranteed to be missing
some of them.
As it stands, bringing up the restored/out-of-date instance results in thos
collections being stuck in 'Recovering' state, because the cores don't exist on
the resulting server. This can also be extended to the case of restoring a
completely blank instance.
Is there any way to tell SolrCloud "Try recreating any missing cores for this
collection based on where you know they should be located."
Or do I need to actually determine a list of cores (..._shardX_replicaY) and
trigger the core creates myself, at which point I gather that it will start
recovery for each of them?
