  The point is more not that users must learn scripting.  It's that the UI is 
starting to get very complicated from a user point of view, -and- from a 
development point of view, and it's getting very hard to test all of our 
options.  Each one we add compounds the problem.  Scripting, is quite easy to 
automate testing of.  However it's best to avoid too many frivolous options 
in any case.

  I've already seen many cases of users being confused by the various options, 
and the plot dialog is particularly overwhelming.
