Well, while it isn't my decision (for Windows), I think it isn't a good idea
to provide this as an official version.  It far too easily opens the door to
abuse, and those few who say they need it most of the time don't really know
why they _don't_ need it.  They simply didn't read in the manual carefully
enough to know how to achieve 99% of what they want with the GUI version
only version already.
