You shouldn't be giving up anything by using the command line
interfaces.  Most everyone at Cygnus used the command line or emacs
interfaces to gnats for years.  You don't get pull-downs to click
on, but all the features/facilities are there if you use the right
command line options.

BTW I should note that the gnatsweb facility for uploading a file
into a PR is a gnatsweb-only mechanism.  As far as I know, no other
front ends are able to decode these attachments.  It's one of the
(numerous) weaknesses of gnats that it doesn't have a standardized
facility for attaching files to a PR.

(there's no technical reason why the other front ends couldn't decode
the gnatsweb attachments; it's just that no one has done it yet AFAIK)
