I don't know about this. Whenever I do something unfamiliar/complicated on the command line I copy every command I used to a text file for later reference. Repeating these actions in the future is as easy as copy and paste. If I figure out how to do something in a GUI and I don't have to do it regularly I will almost certainly find myself flailing and clicking around randomly when I have to do it again in 10 months.
