Have a look at trueos.org it adds a GUI installer to freebsd.
Expect the base freebsd to stick with a CLI installer to support the
non-gui server installs.

I don't expect you will get much support for this change.

Have a look at minix3.org, a few years back they got minix running as
the microkernel and use netbsd as the userland.

Those three main GUI desktops are in use by many people. If you want to
try something else have a look at x11/lumina, which is the new desktop
made for trueOS

Don't expect freebsd to remove the CLI to replace it with a GUI. It is
still used as a non-gui server by many people.
