What is a "native GTK port", and what it would entail?
Which parts of Emacs would have to be changed?


Not speaking for wmperry, but for me it means replacing all X calls with GTK calls. Basically this is the functionallity of lwlib and at least the functionallity of these files:
widget.c
xfaces.c
xfns.c
xmenu.c
xrdb.c
xselect.c
xterm.c

I believe it is possible to have a mixed X/GTK world while developing, thus replacing piece by piece. Even so, this is a bit of work.
