IMO no. First problem is it breaks backward compatibility without any good 
reason. Second problem is that in my opinion it is *very* user friendly if you 
get some kind of wizard guiding you through the installation.
I see grml-debootstrap not as a non interactive program but more as a 
interactive program with additional commandline interface, like for example 
mutt.
