I would have thought most of this type of requirement could be covered by eBox [1] integration? Personally, I don't see any need for a full gui on a server - that just means I haven't run into a good reason yet - it may be lurking out there :-) We should of course have X libs so you can run an X client with the display presented on a remote X server either directly or via ssh .
