This seems an awful lot like arguing that, since you are happy at the CLI, there's no need for a GUI. Widespread availability of rich OS-level IMEs wouldn't hurt anyone, and could help everyone. (Even for someone like you who wants to pass through raw hex, it's easier to tell that once to the OS rather than to have to argue with each app individually.)

I was unclear. I'm not against anything, just saying let the user control it, just make sure some great idea actually works (user testing shows many great thing aren't; people are complex and so are their mental models) then not force it on users.
