sure, i can see that point of view. but you might also be surprised just how easy it is to get a significant Unix-based GUI-oriented application cross-ported to OSX without having to touch -any- of the Aqua fluff, or any Apple-only GUI API's, specifically. text-mode/scripting has a place on one end, OSX-consumerist GUI standards on the other end, and in the middle are cmd-line run tools which pop their own framebuffer up on demand, display what they have to display using their own GUI framework, and leave it at that.

fink and darwinports are full of cmd-line oriented GUI tools, for example, most of all have args, all of them have to resort to their own custom hacks to use these args in any kind of sensible way, outside the domain of Finder..
