Well, it appears my understanding of the competitive landscape was woefully
incomplete, or out of date.  Perhaps "Linux has separate executables" is
still a bogus argument here.  Regardless of whether we provide a GUI in the
same executable, as a separate executable, or not at all, there's a
straightforward path towards obviously better solutions, so I think it
mostly ends up being a call based on expectations, and the resources
available to do the work.
