I predict scriptable interfaces will become more popular as larger data and 
"reproducible research" become more important. The former is why almost all GIS 
packages include script capabilities. The latter will increase its usage. Then 
it is up to users to realize that something designed to be scriptable works 
better than something where the scripting is added on to a GUI.
