Were you aware of the existing implementation?

look for "GRASS shell extension" at

  http://grass.ibiblio.org/download/addons.php


note the link is 404 not-found, so not much use to anyone. Maybe someone
has an old copy though? This will surely be pre-GRASS 6 though so yours
will be more up to date, but maybe it could help you.

Once you are happy with it, it can be added to the Add-Ons page in the
wiki.  http://grass.gdf-hannover.de/twiki/bin/view/GRASS
