I did a quick and dirty test:
git clone https://github.com/Whonix/anon-connection-wizard
git clone https://github.com/Whonix/python-guimessages
sudo env XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME
PYTHONPATH=/home/amnesia/anon-connection-wizard/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/:/home/amnesia/python-guimessages/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/
/home/amnesia/anon-connection-wizard/usr/bin/anon-connection-wizard
which starts a-c-w (but actually configuring Tor fails, which I expected).
GNOME integration is currently not great:
* the fonts are very small (and perhaps blurrier?). FTR, I observe the same in
Electrum.
* Qt GUI elements (e.g. buttons) are fairly different than the GTK ones.
My hope is that we could improve this with something like
qt5-gtk-platformtheme, or perhaps themes like QGnomePlatform and adwaita-qt.
This initial testing also tells me that there are quite some Whonix-specific
stuff going on, so a-c-w will not be a drop-in-replacement, but require some
substantial modification. I'll have a closer look next week, hopefully.

I take this back: (the old) Tor Launcher looks really nicely integrated in
GNOME.
Cheers!
