For what I use openwrt for, a GUI wouldn't make a lot of sense. I've set up custom VLANs across some of the ports, and highly customized firewall rules creating a DMZ out of the wireless. None of these things would fit well into a GUI. In the vast majority of the places where OpenWRT is used, the machine is customized to the point that the gui wouldn't work for them either. Asterix installations, openvpn stuff, etc. In many cases if the gui were present and taking up space, there wouldn't be room for the extra stuff such as Asterix that openwrt makes possible.
