No reason pkgng couldn't be wrapped in some sort of menuing system. In
fact, it's probably quite a lot easier than doing the same sort of thing
with the old pkg_tools.
Also, pkgdb functionality is expressed through libpkg.so.1, meaning that
hooking it up to a different front-end should be a small matter of
programming. There is already a Ruby interface available, and other
languages are being worked on. The libpkg API is still subject to
incompatible changes at this stage of development: that won't be settled
for quite some time yet.
