However you can not deny that being able to just type the name (or number) of the unit would be much better.

I dont see them adding a paint program into the ModEditor. Maybe (just dreaming here) something that would let you click a color and change it so you could change a gold paladin into a white knight.
So clicking a unit would.... what? bring up the stats and let you edit them in little boxes, then save the changes as #commands to a text file? I could see that. At least it would let you view the units and select as an AllView game does.

And it doesn't matter if you used to working in command lines, GUI is (almost) always easier, and seeing as how I am playing a game for fun, I don't want to stress or spend that much time working on a scenario.

Of course. Everything has its pros and cons. A gui is an easier to use interface. And a command line is more options than a gui. Thats pretty much standard.
