Is there plans to implement a ACL GUI?  If not I really have to wonder  
why.  I am wanting to build an OpenSolaris NAS (because of ZFS) for a  
client of mine but without a GUI, I can see my support calls  
increasing quite a bit.

some posts have said you can do it all from a windows client, however  
that does not seem like a solution to me, more of a workaround.
