Probably he wanted something more reliable and secure, but  still
wants some of the convenience (from his point of view anyway).
He's looking for what he perceives as the best of both worlds.

But, I am not one to answer the original question because I prefer 
using vi and command line stuff, etc rather than be bothered with all
that GUI interference, that never seems to do things the way I 
really want it.
