Without having read the original thread, I imagine such a beast to
be used to easily script common UI tasks such as dialogs.

Things to express in such a context are

* GUI structure
* simple callbacks and their relation to events
* some styling

I'v done some GUI prototyping in a former life using a combination of
Python, XML, and CSS.
Popular examples of such languages include XUL (mozilla), Javascript,
and similar.
