Personally, I don't think it is only the GUI thing. Fossil delivers both
sides: the CLI client and the server in a neat single exec file. The
ordered numbering is just a client-side convenience. Long time ago I was
trying to propose and (almost) implemented numbering for changes, so you
could do selective commit with range of files like 1-5,7. There was little
interest in that feature, so I gave up.

All in all, I think it would be nice to add these little things to the
console client, so the need for the GUI is only for those who really hate
console.

  Cheers,
