GUI can only exist for types that are known by the application or the
GUI toolkit it uses. If you are using a 2026 FFmpeg with an application
from 2024, all the types introduced in FFmpeg between 2024 and 2026 will
be and cannot have a specific GUI, unless they are trivial enumerations.

This is why you need powerful text manipulation even with GUIs.
