Actually there was somewhat of a precedent set, but not for the case of a daughter's husband.
As a reason for persecuting the Hundred Years War, the English gave out that the French crown should have passed to Edward III through his mother, and not to his cousin of Valois.
To avoid being all hypocritical about it (which I'm well aware that Medieval lords didn't care much about in any case) during the time when the war is being persecuted, I'd say the precedent points to Roger Mortimer, son of Edmund and Philippa, becoming king. Now the issue is finding a POD in which he survives 1398 (the year he died) in order to become king. He was young and in good physical shape, so he'd apparently be no mean king.
