A well-written tool should work on either.

No, I don't *need* another kernel.  But I'm not a n00b (hopefully that's 
not a pejorative, it's not meant as such), and I like to explore the 
kernel options and see what's out there.  I'd like to have a way to just 
press a button and make it happen, after setting my options - and to 
know at a glance which options do what, which are dangerous, etc., etc.  
Just seems like one of the things that is perfectly suited to a nice 
graphical interface.
