You are (increasingly) right, As memory and CPU resources get cheaper, 
including a GUI in embedded projects gets more common. (In fact this is 
why I gave up active development for the "active noGUI" Widget Type I 
had been planning and already did a test-implementation of.)

OTOH regarding the discussed issue, gui-free just means "without a 
local, directly linked GUI". There are projects that ask attaching for 
non-local GUI, using some dedicated interface to attach the GUI e.g. (1) 
CGI with HTML, ExtJS or Silverlight, or (2) a daemon that can be 
monitored by a configuration program, (3) an Android app that is 
attached to a fully integrated Android-style GUI done in Java.

This is all about separating the GUI and the "business" logic - as 
recently discussed here.
