I saw that too. I'm not sure I qualify as an "experienced
FreeBSD user", but although I almost certainly would not use the tool
myself (I like to have some inkling of what programs are doing and
why), I can see why others might want something like this.
Myself, I'd like to see an improved installation tool to replace
sysinstall, before we worry too much about a GUI kernel configuration
tool, although if someone has a real bee in their bonnet to do the
latter, I certainly wouldn't be inclined to stand in their way.

Unix is like a wigwam -- no Gates, no Windows, and an Apache inside.
Unix is very user-friendly. It's just picky who its friends are.
