I hope that, for starters, the end-result would look nothing like that produced by gtkmm. GTK-based GUIs on Windows just look 'wrong'. I'd hope that any solution we envisage would use the platform native widgets to render itself just as SWT does for Java.
Getting a native look would be difficult; ideally you would have a set of functions that provide the functionallity to draw in the native style. The other way would to have a wrapper for native controls and some method to adjust how they function. The latter option would result in there being separate braches of the library for native and custom controls.
