I don't agree. I don't think the wizard should replace the module GUI. It
should make initial use easier and by that cover a large majority of use
cases, but why program a whole new wizard interface which at the end
replicates the GUI module.
I just sent a message to grass-dev & grass-psc as I think this merits a
more fundamental discussion beyond this specific bug report. In this
specific case, I plead for:
* give a specific name to the wizards
* don't open wizard when module is called by name
* add option to open module GUI from wizard
