well........ the average user does not always want to constantly leave the main application just for a small change in configuration.
the end-user will be able to do as much as possible inside the GUI. so he does not have to close MediaPortal 2
i.e. change audio/video codecs, download and install new plugins/skins/updates, change the skin, change the theme, add new shares ect.
that all will also be possible in the external application + other "complex" things like tweaking the menu.

ofc, you will be able to test the alpha version without uninstalling MediaPortal 0.2.3.0
