Having a separate "tweak tool" is a lame workaround for lack of settings in 
the official tools. The only reason such "tweak tools" exist on proprietary 
operating systems is because the proprietary companies don't want to 
officially support some functionality, so you need a third-party tool to 
enable the hidden settings. Having an "official tweak tool" is really really 
silly.
