What Would It Take To Add Native Dialogs?

The GTK Open/Save Dialogs look really odd on a Windows system.

What would it take to put an if statement in the code that checks for the OS and delegates to the Win API if it was a Windows system? https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776913%28v=VS.85%29.aspx

It looks like there is already platform specific builds https://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp/tree/build/windows

There has been some work on native file-chooser dialogs recently in GTK+, the UI toolkit GIMP uses.

This is great development.
