Actually, we do use them in our GUI. and the following is one ugly,  
inconsistent UI:

+------------------------------------+
| Choose cryptographic suite:        |
|   o VPN-A                          |
|   o VPN-B                          |
|   o Suite-B-GCM-128                |
|   o Suite-B-GCM-256                |
|   o Custom            |Define...|  |
