I had a co-worker (who knows how to script) suggesting that we need a 
GUI to pick files to copy from a to b.  He wasn't clear that he could 
filter the file list any better than ls can so ultimately he wanted to 
re-invent konqueror (or whatever file manager your desktop uses). 
Because it's hard for him to pick the right rpm version out of a list.  Bah.

I hope he was mostly joking.
