Such features aren't available in Emacs Lisp.

In general, we are seeking to reduce our dependence on things like GTK,
whose developers are zealously hostile to some of Emacs's requirements.
So I don't anticipate their introduction in the immediate future either.

If you build Emacs with some other X toolkit, the aesthetics of the menu
and tool bars can be modified by means of the `tool-bar' and `menu-bar'
faces.
