There already is a lot of work that has been done on supporting those kinds of images; instead of checking out the 1.2 cvs branch, check out the HOLLYWOOD branch. Some information about that branch is available at film.gimp.org. So pretty much all you would have to do is write the plugin, and the plugin api is pretty well documented (see the libgimp documentation.)
