It depends on my aesthetic feeling. If I'd would create GUI myself
(to match mentioned feelings: cross-platform open-source widgets engine,

exploring and installation of new rocks.

Also it would be nice to have ability to save versions of all installed
rocks in separate file. In case you need to rollback after update.
