I don't know which system you are using but there has been graphically configuration programs for X for several years. True, primitive GUI-tools but none-the-less GUI tools.
Well SuSe has had Yast for ages, which contains a module to configure X graphically. If they would have just taken that and customized it (Yast is GPL), then they would have had this functionality ages ago. But no, the NIH syndrome is strong and everything must be written from scratch. Hooray.
