I agree. The days of the command-line DBA are not numbered but the end is close enough you can see it with a pair of binoculars.
Still my major issue with GUIs, and the reason I believe you must understand the command line to effectively use a GUI, is that no GUI ever written has built into it the ability to do everything that can be done at a prompt.
Take any Oracle or third-party GUI product on the market. How many types of indexes can you build? Not as many as I can with SQL*Plus. And therein lies the issue.
