GSoC (Student Suggestion) - Visual Scheme Editor

Hi,
I would like to create a Visual Scheme Editor for the GIMP to allow users with little or no programming knowledge to quickly and easily create a script. The simplicity of Scheme makes it (in my opinion) the ideal import/export language for Visual Programming.

The editor (ideally) would allow users to drag-and-drop procedures from a procedure list into the editor. I envision the editor as representing each procedure as a box. Boxes can be nested inside of other boxes to be passed as arguments. Common procedures would be given icons and a help bubble. To reduce boiler-plate, the user would be presented with a table to fill in the additional information needed for a script (author, date, copyright, etc.)

Obviously this is quite an ambitious project, and thus I would try to focus on just the essentials.
Also, I have never programmed with GTK+, glib of gobject before.
