Actually, it does not. 
You can do the whole work-flow in GUI-mode only. You can use xgsch2pcb 
or the shiny new pull feature of pcb to eliminate the command line, 
too. That said, sometimes it is just easier to tweak the *.sch, or 
*.pcb files than use the GUIs.

The reprap example shows how slightly misunderstood concepts may scare 
away potential new users/projects.
