Yes. In 7.0, r.mfilter has been replaced by r.mfilter.fp. In 6.x,
r.mfilter is retained for compatibility (i.e. in case anyone has
scripts which rely upon the existing behaviour), but it's deprecated.

Right. In 6.x, r.mapcalc doesn't use G_parser(), so it cannot generate
a parameter dialog. "r.colors ... color=rules" reads from stdin, which
won't work from the GUI (however, color=rules is deprecated in favour
of the rules= option, which reads rules from a named file).
