As far as FGU is concerned, I disagree completely. I always find it weird that people complain about the GUI, then list that FGU has super powerful features - I simply think those things are hand-in-hand (it's system agnostic, it allows for extensions, ect). The GUI can use improvement, sure, but do I want that improvement to come over optimization or other features? No, not at all.
What's more is that any change to the GUI at this point garners extreme pain for those that have previously learned it. Frankly, I don't think it's too much to ask for GMs to learn a new GUI in order to have access to what has been, for me, the most powerful campaign tool I've ever encountered. You mention "better looking" GUI, but what about usability? To me, Foundry and others (with flashier GUIs and features) lack the obvious power that FGU has, and suffer for it.
