I don't think that's what he is trying to tell. I believe it's: either
expose the setting, or don't have the setting. The middle way is
broken, be it semi-official tweak tool or even worse "advanced" tab.
Especially if the tweak tool is for settings that are expected to be
broken, unsupported or eating kitties. 

I mean, what's behind the idea of having an unsupported, half-broken
switch in a *stable* release in the first place? If you don't support
it, or it isn't finished, why it's in the stable release? If it's
supported and finished, why it isn't visible? The most *I* can
understand is: "we have implemented this setting, because we think it's
important, the setting is supported and it isn't eating kitties, but we
don't know yet how to properly expose it in UI". But Olav seems to
suggest otherwise and that's probably what Kevin responds to.
