The interface is capable of running g-code on LinuxCNC. When you open a g-code file in the GUI it will be automatically uploaded to the controller if you are running a remote connection. The biggest issue I see for a complete GUI is backplotting. Different controllers use different dialects of g-code so you would either need a 'universal' customizable interpreter (a nightmare to write and maintain) or some way of embedding the control's interpreter (possible with LinuxCNC but not with any of the closed source controllers).
