Please don't make the mistake of thinking that because I don't use the WB, that I am trying to keep it from being a usable alternative. Given a usable alternative to CLI, I would undoubtedly use it at least some of the time, when I felt it was appropriate. As I have said, over and over again, I am all for making the WB more powerful, but am definitely concerned about how it is done, how it will affect the rest of the machine, and in particular, how it will affect the novice user. Giving a novice user CLI power as a default, for example, may or may not be a good thing, depending on what said novice does with it.
