seems to me that its all about time. ideally, the design of GDK would be
modified to be more generic/adaptable, and all backends would continue to
use it as an interface. but it seems to me unlikely that this is going to
happen in any reasonably timely  way. so if you want this to work (i confess
that its not too important for ardour's functionality), i think your
proposal is likely right way forward.
