After the chat with zwabbit yesterday i feared exactly this will happen.
I think we have two ways to add cmake to RosBE.
1. Let the Installer load the setup and run it silently in the background.
2. Bundle a minimal Version.
I dont really like the idea to make users be forced to load cmake from
an external link and install it afterwards. So lets choose between these
two ways. I agree, some ppl have a cmake version already installed, but
this does not stop us to provide it for the rest in one or another way.

I fear we would attract too many people from the sandbox if we ship
RosBE with such a GUI. If you want to try or develop ReactOS, you
simply need some skills. Just requiring basic command line skills for
building a whole OS is already better than what similar projects offer.
In any case, something like this shouldn't be considered for the very
first CMake release of RosBE.
We could maybe bundle the already available CMake GUI if there are
more votes for it. But to be honest, I don't think it's that hard to
use the command line for setting the few options we have. The rest of
the building process happens there anyway.
