The XCDE way of doing this is to query color sets from the color server
using X selections (dtsession is acting as color server on CDE). That's
what Motif does.
I don't think it is necessary to add any code to dtsession or anywhere
in CDE at all to achieve this. A separate utility that sits between
CDE's color server and GTK, Qt, you name it... would be a much cleaner
way to implement this.
As an example for matching CDE's color sets to GTK widgets I have this
hackish Kornshell script that generates .gtkrc scripts from CDE palettes
for me :) I attached it in case you're interested.

The actual problem is probably how to match those few colors onto vast

Well, you are right. But couldn't we start from what is needed by
standard and big desktop apps?
It does not seem that Firefox, LibreOffice, Thunderbird and Gimp need
all possibilities that GTK provides.

# Generates gtkrc from CDE session settings.

# Depending on 'Resume current session' setting in Startup settings dialog,
# color palette from current or home session will be used. It can also be
# overriden with -s <session> parameter. A file named gtkrc-2.0-new will be
# written to user's home directory. If -o is specified ~/.gtkrc-2.0 will be
# overwritten.
#
# Issues:
# GTK2 doesn't understand X logical font descriptors, so the font
# must be specified manually with '-f <font name>' switch.
#
# It is assumed that 'thinice' engine is installed (for most distributions
# it's a part of GTK2 package).
#
# Some options, like toolbar icon size, cursor blinkrate and popup delay
# are hardcoded here to relatively usable values.
