I fear we would attract too many people from the sandbox if we ship 
RosBE with such a GUI. If you want to try or develop ReactOS, you simply 
need some skills. Just requiring basic command line skills for building 
a whole OS is already better than what similar projects offer.

In any case, something like this shouldn't be considered for the very 
first CMake release of RosBE.
We could maybe bundle the already available CMake GUI if there are more 
votes for it. But to be honest, I don't think it's that hard to use the 
command line for setting the few options we have. The rest of the 
building process happens there anyway.
