Please don't ditch Axis. It's nice, clean & simple and I found it quite
intuitive to use. It works well for my hobby class 3 axis mill.
I like the fact that there is a GUI included with Linuxcnc, one less
thing to install.
If I was a new user I'd be a little confused if I had to install a GUI
separately, and which one to choose ?

It's a much cleaner way for maintenance.
I think it's a daft idea from a user support point of view.
Take the example of where issues would be reported. Would you expect
users to have to search through github to find the right repository to
raise an issue on the right GUI?
Good point about debugging, Andy.
I object to moving the GUIs out of our repo for a different reason: I
worry that the work of building and distributing packages would not
get done by all the GUI developers, and as a result these out-of-repo
GUIs would be harder for our users to access.
That said, I sure am sympathetic to the extra work of maintaining all
these GUIs in our repo.
Perhaps some kind of packaging-as-a-service scheme could help here,
but it would still require proper dependency tracking and release
management to be done by the GUI devs.
