This is a very interesting idea, and one that seems "do-able".
A wild guess is that it would be on the same order of complexity
as writing a complete, easy to use interface to Windows.
With Euphoria, you are working with a very small number of commands and
datatypes. That would minimize the number of "objects" and
"connections".
Even a subset of the Eu 1.5 core language would make a usable system.

Good decision - Windows may impose too much of itself on what
you are trying to do. Too limiting, plus tons of extra code you'd
add just to keep Windows happy.
There was an article in (BYTE, I think) a few years ago about
programming
in 3-D. (Not 3-D graphcs programming, but writing programs using a 3-D
interface)
It was a theoretical article discussing the concepts , but there
were some screen shots of a program being "built" - the interpreter
running on a mainframe at some university.
