Might this be implemented at some point?
It would be a bit difficult... (How difficult is for you to explain
why you need this feature and can't live with two or three GNU Emacs
running on your system? Is your system a restricted mobile phone or
such?)
You need food and water to work, GNU Emacs needs library functions to
work. You can live from dead animals and dead plants, no way for you
to live from solar energy, electricity, ionising radiation, mineral
oil and natural gas (like a bivalent car), methane, hydrogen, sulfur
compounds.
GNU Emacs can live from GNOME/GTK, X11/Xaw3d, GNUStep/OPENSTEP,
"Aqua," "Carbon," AppKit, Motif... It should work to integrate an
abstraction layer to help decide which library function of the same
API name, which Look And Feel is to be used. And modern computers
have large disks and vast memory, a 1 GB GNU Emacs should work in
such an environment.
It's also possible that in a world of multi-core CPUs once a GNU
Emacs service will run on a dedicated core offering this or that Look
And Feel.

How many Microsoft engineers does it take to screw in a light-bulb?
None.
They just redefine "dark" as the new standard.
