FWIW this doesn't have to be a windows only GUI. We could use the QT widget set and make this portable to most platforms supported by boost. Note, that Qt is LGPL now, so you could even include this into commercial distributions if needed.
Qt application with static linking is gonna weight about 2MB. Does this sound acceptable? Probably it is. The KDE project is working on windows installer for KDE, which is capable of getting necessary third party libraries. I imagine this might be good for Boost -- for example, libz is not commonly installed on Windows. However, I have no idea how easy it would be to adjust that. - Volodya
