New GTK widget

On the GIMP mailing list (https://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/lists/gimp-developer/2007-August/018384.html) I'm proposing a new interface element:

and here's the idea of 1 Dimension Menus explained:

can this be implemented using GTK?

The response was that it has to be supported by GTK, adding a new widget:

Still this kind of user interface would need support from the toolkit. I
don't think it can be written on top of what is available in GTK+ now.

Pretty much anything can be done. Someone just needs to write the code
for it. The user interface you are suggesting is interesting and it
might be a good idea to explore these ideas further, to code a prototype
and to aim for inclusion in GTK+. If GTK+ provided this functionality, I
am sure a lot of apps would start using it. GIMP is usually among the
first applications to adopt new widgets. So there's a good chance that
this would happen here as well.
