Thank you! That worked out nicely.
I leave here the code used in case it turns out useful for someone else:

If you wanted to do this with gWidgetstcltk you could do this:

library(gWidgets)
options(guiToolkit="tcltk")

d <- mtcars ## some data frame
w <- gwindow()
g <- ggroup(cont=w, horizontal=FALSE)
namesCb <- gcombobox(names(d),selected=1, cont=g)
valsCb <- gcombobox(c(""), cont=g)

updateCb <- function(varname) {
  valsCb[] <- d[[varname]]
  svalue(valsCb, index=TRUE) <- 1
}
addHandlerChanged(namesCb, function(h,...) updateCb(svalue(h$obj)))
updateCb(svalue(namesCb))
