I will offer 500 LTC to the person who does this -- should only take a couple hours if that.

Guiminer repository is here: https://github.com/Kiv/poclbm
Guides for wx library: http://zetcode.com/wxpython/
Guide for compiling with py2exe: http://www.blog.pythonlibrary.org/2010/07/31/a-py2exe-tutorial-build-a-binary-series/

Fork needs to have the following:
1) cgminer-scrypt tab with boxes to enter thread-concurrency, vectors, worksize, intensity, and GPU threads aside from the normal stuff. KH/s reported to stdout should show up in the bottom on the tab and in the summary tab of GUIminer.
2) reaper tab with boxes to enter worksize, aggression, sharethreads, threads_per_gpu, and gpu_thread_concurrency (lookup_gap should be set to 2 and is unchangeable).  When starting a reaper worker, a temporary reaper folder will be created that includes properly configured reaper.conf and litecoin.conf files.  Reaper.exe from this folder is then executed.  See the thread in my sig for more info.  KH/s reported to stdout should show up in the bottom on the tab and in the summary tab of GUIminer.

For both cgminer and reaper, there should be a dropdown menu that allows you to select your AMD card default setting from a list.  For both programs, defaults for these values will always be the same:
worksize 256
vectors 1
gputhreads 1
lookupgap 2
sharethreads (reaper only) 32
aggression/intensity 19 (except for 7970, which should be 13 in cgminer)

Default settings for thread concurrency, cgminer:
(card) (thread-concurrency)
5750 3200
5770 3200
5850 6144
5870 6144
5970 6144
6770 3200
6850 6144
6870 6720
6930 8000
6950 8000
6970 8000
6990 8000
7750 7168
7770 8000
7850 12800
7870 16000
7950 21712
7970 24000 (reaper) or 8192 (cgminer)

When you are done link to the GIT repository of your fork and provide a working 32-bit Windows implementation.  For more information on scrypt mining see the thread I wrote in my sig.

I could be wrong, but guiminer already has a File menu -> add new cgminer/reaper tab with all the inputs from OP's request. This is according to what I saw a few days ago
