Member since:Do you mean a single configuration app full of sub-panels/windows/whatevers with a full tree of sections, and stuff?
That sounds like kcontrol, the KDE Control Center, and even KDE developers recognise it is an awful mess.
Still, I guess you can always have a single window with "pointers" to the tools, each one appearing as a standalonte window/capplet like today.
It's in the works, actually: saw a very early version on planet.gnome.org

I hope that Gnome in the near future institutes a full GUI configuration tool..... when I am using a GUI I want to configure via GUI, as do I think that most anybody in the real world would want the same thing.
If Gnome wants to keep the interface consistent and not so easy to change perhaps they could make the GUI configuration tool a root console command accessable only GUI not accessable from the standard configuration tool.
from a root console type "gnome.config" or something like that to give the user a full GUI config tool for Gnome.
this is something the average user would not know about but something the Power user would use, it would make Gnome a much more viable power user DE.
