Visual Frontend to workflows

[ryanprel]

Any thoughts on a physical/visual frontend to workflows?  Essentially something like being able to build a digital mixing board with different types of knobs, buttons, levers, switches, etc that can do different things with workflows.  I can imagine hitting hotkey to bring up "mixing board" screen that you can then use to control something like a WeMo light or an mFi outlet or connecting with something with IFTTT?  Essentially bringing workflows to a visual space.

I think Alfred is meant to be more of a command-line interface: you enter a command, it does something, you're done.

Complex GUIs are for long running interactions. I would be more inclined to write a completely separate application and then just call it with a standard Alfred search.
