 ... and so the clean command line usage being sacrificed for the benefit
 of the GUI. With better tab logic these two things would not have to be in
 conflict.

 e.g. the ability to pipe stdin and stdout from m.proj without needing to
 type cluttering input=- output=-. Maybe redirection locking to avoid the
 GUI freezing waiting for input when the default input is stdin is a matter
 for another ticket, but stems from the same GUI+CLI design
 issues/conflicts. What we have now works pretty well, but it can be
 improved.
