[Vala] Is there any cool modern library to make a screen-based apps?

[Александер Пономарёв <shootnix gmail com>]

Hello,
I'm looking for a tool to make reach terminal app (like mc). Does anybody
know about some library to make it easy? Some kind of Gtk for terminal
screens =)
I'm trying to use ncurses, but:
1. Vala doesn't have bindings of panels and forms (correct me if I wrong)
and so on.
2. ncurses has awfull support of utf-8.
3. and of course I hope there is more cool and usefull library for vala
than ncurses.

Thanks for your'e time =)
