Yes. I do not like python and guess C++ execute faster so why not.

I worked with glade and it works rather well although some of widgets are a 
little bit limited.

Look the same as now so I guess it should work great.

Linuxcnc use NML and I think the server part is in working order but have not

haltalk, this is between which parrts.
