Yeah, much better than a sea of textboxes/comboboxes with no way to search.

That’s the main problem, not boxes.

Also, for text box configs there’s usually a XML/JSON behind the scene anyway. It’s not like I can’t grep my iTerm config even though I configure it from the GUI.

Agreed, I actually see plenty of settings dialogs in complex products with a search function nowadays (cmder, Visual Studio, JetBrains Rider etc).
