As I understand it, the MPlayer GUI has been killed off in the 
mplayer-mt git branch. I'm not sure if a MPlayer-G2-esque revamp of the 
GUI, let alone the core, is really in the cards anymore.

In my opinion, there's really little need for a built-in GUI, except 
for  perhaps "completeness", when amazing frontends like SMPlayer exist.
