Some of my mods have options and those have slashcommands. The one I posted here (the only one that is really relevant atm, I need to work on the others) only has enable/disable. There is already a UI for this in enabling/disabling the mod on the char screen.
Also, another one of my mods was taken by another developer and retooled with the ACE libraries and made much nicer. Because I had released it, even if it didn't have all the options I wanted, it was able to grow beyond what I had originally coded. win-win IMO.
edit:
It would be nice if blizzard provided a template to use their default mod-config area. Provide a table of savedvariable names along with a type (bool makes a check box, int and string give text fields) and a description. You could simply register this and a very simple gui would be generated and added to the list.
In fact (if it hasn't been made already) I may use this idea in my future mods to auto generate both slash commands and a simple gui.
