it's not because it's "the way it's always been" it's because it works effectively.
ui takes resources, cl doesn't. the wheel is a modest invention that hasn't changed since it's inception...same with a lot of things...cl is a great tool so it hasn't had a reason to change.
i don't understand the idea of making cl graphical? how would that work? are you talking like having little icons, etc? or better fonts or what?
because you edit the colors, layout, typeface, size, etc...all in the conf files to the terminal of choice...
it wouldn't be shell anymore if it was graphical.
gnome terminal is highly customizable...and allows for tabbed sessions and such. xterm is even customizable to a degree now.
