My main concern is that there should be some way to prevent the GUI
from loading the vdigit and nviz modules.

AFAIK, it handles the case where these modules don't exist. But if
they do exist and there's something wrong with them (binary
compatibility issues), the whole GUI is toast.

For 7.0, I'm inclined to simply leave them disabled until they have
been re-implemented as programs. I'm not so sure that we shouldn't be
doing likewise for 6.x. Their eventual form will be somewhat different
to the existing implementation, so it may be better if they weren't
offered before then.
