GPS receivers don't transmit, so really there's no reason it should need disabled.
Now that said, I have no problem with them having people turn everything off, I'd just as soon not have the 30 people in front of me all trying to figure out what they have to do with their electronics in the event that you suddenly have to evacuate the plane on takeoff or landing. And I definitely don't want to reach the day when I have to listen to everyone on the plane talking on their cell phone for the entire trip.
