There are several possibilities, GTK+ is well documented, ported to many platforms and operating systems (However, maybe not to all, ConTeXt supports) and has Lua bindings.
If you can prepare a very simple example and explain how to compile it on windows, mac and windows ...
Installing the *right* GTK+ version on macosx is quite a challenge.
I don't know, I never used macosx.
The texlive way of perl/Tk is much more portable, even though it re-introduces perl to the mix.
I don't think it's a good idea to introduce perl. The way to go is to get rid of the hotchpotch of languages and implement everything in lua, if possible. If we prefer TK over GTK why not use the lua Tk bindings? Marco
