How close is this to being able to support, say, the plot library

Should be very close. Not quite there currently because there are two
more chunks that I've written and haven't pushed yet:

   * Implicit (mutual) recursive type aliases, so that a `define-type`
     can define mutually recursive type alises like the types for
     `bitmap%` and `bitmap-dc%`.

You mean something like this would work?

  (define-type (Leaf1 X) (Pair (Leaf2 X) (Leaf2 X)))
  (define-type (Leaf2 X) (U X (Pair (Leaf1 X) (Leaf1 X))))

   * Types for everything in racket/gui and a few other libraries.
     Types for the framework are still work-in-progress.

   * Full contract support.

I'm with Robby. This sounds awesome.
