I am not aware of any attempts at this. What is involved
in doing that?

What do you mean by 'OO fashion'? The codebase is currently divided
into several modules and there is emphasis on separating API and
implementation. Portions of the GUI use the GTK object system. There
are plans to sharpen the line between modules and to add additional
abstraction layers for things like currencies and commodity
information.  There are no plans to rewrite in an 'OO language'.
