The short answer is that there is nothing of production quality at the
moment, if the GTK2 bindings are insufficient.  The GTK2 bindings are
reportedly pretty good, but, I haven't tried them.

There has been some work on reviving the GTK3 or GObject bindings, and
there are many pieces that are complete; but, there is no complete,
documented, and tested library that you can import today.
