I agree that a centralized area would be good for much of this. But, 2 thoughts:
1) to a degree, that is what this group is for (though not with the sole purpose of customizations/tweaks) 2) TW5 is still in beta.

In following many of the discussions here, many of the customizations (sliders for instance) will be addressed at a future development point.
