I don't exactly see, how this would solve the problem with the
incompatibility of toolkits under X11? Will a XUL plugin GUI be able
to run in Ardour and in MusE, to just take two big examples of Gtk and
QT programs?

If you just need a personalized graphical representation of a plugin,
you can do that in Pd or jMax, too. See for example sooperlooper,
which comes with a Pd GUI.
