Is it simply the matter of finding the

Yes. One of the reasons I would like to contribute to this effort
(assuming it is organized appropriately) is that I always have to refer
to the AVRDude documentation to remember the command line options.
Well, I never remember them either. I stuff them into a makefile and
promptly forget until I need to create another makefile.
Part of good user interface design is to first examine your users and
come up with come user roles (some people call them persona). So
actually you ask a good question - what kind of people use AVRDude and
how do they use it? With a bit more time I could write up a 2 or 3
persona profiles for the different users of AVRDude(-Gui) if people are
interested.
That's exactly why I'm asking. Before going off to write some code, I
think we all need to know what problem we're solving. I'm not asking
because I'm opposed to gui's... I'm opposed to spending time writing
code that is either not needed or doesn't solve the real problem.
Persona profiles is exactly what we need.
