I saw it demo'd on OpenOffice calc at UseR! 2008 as I recall --- it looked good. It was not yet released. For quick GUIs specialised for specific tasks, I use the Glade tool to graphically build the GUI - very quick and easy. Glade saves the GUI specs into XML. The RGtk2 package in R can read that XML file and display the GUI. The callbacks (i.e., the functionality called upon when you click a GUI button) are simply R functions. (Rattle is implemented this way.)
