Personally I'm glad that's the case. Configuring servers via gui is an abomination, and I hope it stays in the windows world.
I for one am glad that 'webmin' is effectively dead, and the 'Cockpit' thing that ships with a default Fedora install is much less offensive in terms of how it mangles system configuration files you might want to otherwise edit by hand.
