In nautilus (on nv_79 at least) if you right click a .iso image and
select "Write to disc", you get a dialog like 
http://www.gnome.org/~davyd/gnome-2-8/images/gnome-nautilus-cd-burner.png
(my version of Solaris appears to be missing the "After Writing"
options)

There's also a "Places->Burn Folder" where you can drag & drop files
which you can then burn to disk.

More info at:

What extra would an additional gui provide ?

	cheers,
