A robots.txt gui config panel??  I really don't know what you are asking.  Are you referring to spiders and indexing?  Please explain.

Thanks for your reply.  I now understand what you are asking.  However,  such a feature isn't necessary, for me.  That function is taken care of with a meta tag and a very small robots.txt file I created for what I want accomplished.  This is only done once as there is no need for me to make on-going changes.  Most people don't even know what a robots.txt file is, what's its purpose, and have never used one.

yes, i think it is not a good abstraction of robots.txt functionalities.
i had in mind something better.
like an option to not be listed on search engines.
this may make sense for people who don't know of robots.txt
