Though it's great to a see a new GUI library for Go, I'm wondering if it's following the best approach. Most frameworks seem to be moving towards more declarative languages (HTML for many platforms, QML for Qt), often mixed with JS, and it makes it much easier to create GUI. Not sure if we need another clone of wxWidgets/QtWidgets. I wonder if something like a native QML interpreter in Go would be possible.

Check this out: https://github.com/go-qml/qml

It's written by the same guy who made the awesome MongoDB driver for Go, so I have high hopes!

go-qml has already stirred up enough interest for that same guy to run a program-making contest at the recent GopherCon so I guess it's safe to say your hopes are reasonable =P
