Well i'm of the concept you can never depend on having the gui version.

so CLI is my choice, if you can do recovery by doing CLI then by all means use GUI if available, just dont be dependent on GUI as your only method of recovery.

Take for example:
  Does the OEM gui give you option to be able to extract out(manually using dbms_backup_restore.restorecontrolfileto) a backed up controlfile that the only place it is, is in a backup piece)? My guess is no way(i've not tested it though) as I'm trying to make sure i'm totally up to speed and can recovery from any disaster at the command line before even looking at the gui.

my 2 cents worth.
