Dear Stephane,
You're right, GROMACS can support flexible CMAP definitions as headers in "cmap.itp" set the specific dihedral types. Hence, ff19SB should be portable to GROMACS, but new (ff19SB) atom types must be introduced. The other thing is, porting also requires proper testing...
I'm not the developer here, Carlos should better say, but despite using the same implementation, CHARMM and AMBER CMAPs mean slightly different things... While CHARMM CMAPs are corrections to the dihedral function, AMBER CMAPs represent the dihedral function...
I'm not a big fan of automagic porting... so I suggest you to start implementing ff19SB from a validated ffAMBER port of ff14SB (
https://www.gromacs.org/Downloads/User_contributions/Force_fields). Beware that GROMACS and AMBER use different energy units.
Last but not least, note that GROMACS code performs slower with CMAPs than without.
All the best,
Matías

Hi Stephane,
GROMACS has been supporting CMÄP for different Amino acids for a long time

This is not a stupid question but it should be addressed to GROMACS.
It's just a shame they stopped their mailing list. I stopped following
their new GROMACS Forum as I'm only interested in ACPYPE questions and I
don't have time to spare visiting their Forum, when filtered emails (like I
have here in Amber Mailing List) do this trick simple and quick.
If you get an answer there, please share it with us here.
Best
