On modern machines, GUI programs have no problem keeping up with 
anyone's typing.  Most offer hotkeys for many operations so you don't 
have to move your hand to the mouse, but there at just many operations 
in the GUI versions that have no character-mode equivalent.  For 
example, you can pop several messages open in their own windows to have 
them on the screen for reference or cut/paste while you reply to another 
message.  Or, you can select multiple non-contiguous messages with 
ctl-click on the subject display, then drag them to a different folder 
in one motion.  Or move attachments around with drag and drop.
