i can do the gtk part.

i dont see a problem. there is knob code for every toolkit on
sourceforge. lets unify the gfx data have a widget for every toolkit.

I see what you're saying, and don't get me wrong - I didn't mean to
imply it's an easy thing to do. But it is however, possible. Just
getting a standard mechanism for the host to call an executable
somewhere that shows the plugins GUI (with communication via OSC or
something like that) would work, and is doable.
I'm just saying the "let's pick a toolkit!" debate isn't going to
go
anywhere at all, and there's no point in starting it (yet.. again..).
You're right, it *isn't* simple - which is a good reason IMHO to try and
make it as simple as possible and avoid all the nasty
toolkit/event-loop/etc problems.
Or maybe "we" should just pick a damn toolkit and be done with it; what
the hell do I know? (absolutely zero sarcasm intended)
