It won't work. 

There is an implicit parameter when a GIMP procedure is called which 
is "interactive" or "non intereactive".

when you call a procedure from inside a script (or a plug-in in other 
language), it is considered to be a non-interactive call. Thus, no 
interface is displayed for the called procedure.

The work around for it in other langauges would be to hand-draw the 
needed interactive interface in GTK+. I don't know if it is even 
possible in script-fu.
