That looks pretty cool. I'm glad something like that is getting into
the archives. I was hoping something like that could have been
developed within the Power User community here but that's not so
important.

I do wish that they could use more "human" language though. These
"tweak" tools have a really bad habit of using internal jargon to
describe options. For instance, what does "backlight" mean or what's
the difference between "avoid", "hidden" and "smart"? These are the
things that will add value to a tweaking app. The point is to
translate the "internals" into user desires.
