That wget GUI you are referring to and dragging through the dirt is a GPL Perl script from a lone programmer done in 2007 who did it out of personal motivation [1]. He provides his personal email address and asks for feedback through it. Have you contacted him?
It's fine to shit on proprietary garbage by huge companies which are involving UX experts into their development process such as Reddit or Facebook UI, but what you're doing is not cool.
