    That statement is partly correct I think, The initial claim that could have probably been distorted later as the news hit the wire, was that that particular GUID: {ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} is not documented. And that appears correct as far as my limited researches so far can reveal.

    There is nothing God like about this tweak. It is simply a logical, readable and understandable version of all the options in action center and scattered and camouflaged helter-skelter elsewhere in Windows 7. “Master Task Mode” (aka God Mode) is what control panel should have been from the start.
