hi
I haven't read all the comments here, I'm kinda jumping in the middle.
But from what I have read, it sounds more as if the OP wants tweak
tool functionality folded into gnome. I agree with this. Most of the
things tweak tool does are arguably things gnome itself should do. I
mean, seriously? To change what my power button does I have to launch
tweak tool? Why isn't this included in the power settings? That said,
I'm not picky. Gnome does all the basic stuff and some advanced stuff
from it's control center, and it integrates very very well, so I'm
fine with either decision. If tweak tool gets folded into gnome,
great. If not, I can just install it. What it does need is some a11y
love, but that's for a bug report, not here.
Thanks

I don't think that patching the control-center to launch the tweak
tool makes sense. That's entirely out of line with how the other
control-center panels work.
I don't have a problem with making the tweak tool easily
available, but I have to wonder: are we failing so badly in our
attempt to make software readily available via gnome-software and
search that everything still has to be pre-installed ?
As an experiment, I removed gnome-tweak-tool and then I searched
for 'tweak' in the shell overview - the tweak tool shows up among
the search results provided by gnome-software, and it is 3 clicks
from there to having it running (one to open gnome-software, one
to install, one to launch).
Is that still too hard ?
