This sounds like a great applications for picogui :) Since the theme handles the mapping between widgets and a visual representation, you should be able to run your application in ncurses just by changing the video driver and theme. You may also want to change your app's UI layout depending on whether you're in text or graphicsl mode. You can do this by designing your app's UI with Widget Templates and changing the WT file it loads. This should become even easier once WTs and themes are integrated, as your app could just load its WTs from the current theme. As for user input, picogui has a 'hotspot' system that can be used for keyboard navigation in text mode.
