Same here.

I don't see a script as a workaround. Scripts allow use in Makefiles or
other automatic flows, needed for substainability in projects with long
maintainance time. The script works much nicer in a revision controlled
environment than any GUI point and click.

Please reconsider the usage of th script versus the proposed GUI additions.

Happy new year!
