I don't get this, why would you want to use an unbiased physically based spectral render for such basic passes? Imho your host app will be plenty fast for such renderings and your camera is synchronized anyway so it's no big deal.

Hmm.. you right for some basic passes. But AO will be more fast on GPU

a directligh plus a white enviroment with clay model would be the closest to an oclussion pass

Yes.. its cool but its not AO.
AO very usefull to mix few materials to make extra details like dirt and make surface "older". Its like cavity mask.
So a realy want to see AO as procedural texture in Octane.
