Can't bulk-kill processes, for one. Not searchable, for two.

You can bulk kill with e.g.

     Get-ScheduledTask -TaskPath "\UpdateTasks\" | Stop-ScheduledTask
That also demonstrates search too, by the way.

Haven't used it in a long time, but looking at it now, the GUI is definitely clunky and those features are missing.

Wasn't there another GUI during the Windows XP days?

That MMC snap-in hasn't changed much in the NT era of Windows. You might be recalling 95-ME's even worse task scheduler?
