Should SFWA consider opening membership to writers of comic books and graphic novels?

[Wow, that was a dull way to frame that. Please add "Why or why not?]

Inspired by a discussion on one of the blogs that I read regularly, which I will not name for the moment so that people will not run over there and have their reactions influenced by the discussions that have already occured.

Let us summarize.

Under current rules, allowed to be members of SFWA:
Corey Mandell and J. D Shapiro (who brought us "Battlefield Earth" on film).
Andrew Burt.

Not allowed to be members (ignoring non-comic work):
Masamune Shirow. Anyone who claims Ghost in the Shell and Appleseed aren't science fiction needs their head examined.
