Erm a -look is only for themes and sounds and other stuff that is used to
change the interface.... so having it put into -gui doesn't sound ok for me...
Environments sound nice but it's imho waaayyy to much

As for the -classes that was only a sample but I think we shuld keep classes
to a minimal..

But of course the final word here is alley_cats :)
