Right. You can type things you don't mean to as easily as click
things you don't mean to. I'm just looking for the actual evidence
that GUIs are fundamentally evil when running as root, not all
this vague handwaving "Oh, it must be horrible!" stuff that seems
to be entirely anecdotal or possibly completely imaginary.

P.S. The simplest way to login to the gui as root is to switch
to KDM instead of GDM as your login manager. KDM has not yet
been taken over by the paranoid thought police :-).
