gnome-tweak-tool brings back some functionality that was removed from previous installs to which users were used to. It would be nice to have it in default install. Also it would be nice to have it directly in control center.

Some of these customization options used to live in the old (gnome 2.x) control center, but due to upstream decision it's not there. gnome-tweak-tool was created to allow customization of the desktop experience without needing to manually edit gsettings (dconf) keys, which is not a simple task for a simple user. > > Also it would be nice to have it directly in control center. That should be in a separate bug, under gnome-tweak-tool component of upstream's bug tracker.
IMO, if it was intended for these settings to be part of the normal user-modifiable configuration, they would already be exposed in the normal upstream control-center. Since they're not, I'm not sure why this should be in the default install.
You have functionality which is in your desktop for several years and users get used to it. That functionality is still there it's just hidden and now you force user to find out how to get it back to what he's used to. Okay don't put it into control-center but still put it on iso and mention it in release notes. I'm quite sure that there are enough users who'll want to show date or change gui style, font size or suspend setting. So why making it harder for them?
