I saw the thread about spectral film simulations finding there way into ART and was wondering if there is any interest or if it is even possible to do this in DT? Just wondering.

As it is now, you could integrate via lua. Probably not much work if you just want to launch the GUI.
Integration into core: probably not of its Python.

it seems that this package is expecting a bitmap, the author recommends a 16 bit PNG, so it seems like using a “open in image editor” command should do it, I haven’t tried this is DT, in RT it saves a 16 bit Tiff in the tmp folder then opens that
Not darktable, but… @hanatos has already started porting it to gsls for vkdt! 
For any darktable dev: how difficult would it be porting this to C for darktable use?
Having those simulations incorporated in DT would be great. However, the project is rather WiP at the moment.

For darktable you could probably use the existing contrib/ext_editor.lua script.
