All these new modes are ideal for particles manipulation. Great new improvement.
 
  Note that the duplicates created by the tool are not automatically
added to selection and therefore are out of reach for further tweaking
until you manually select them. To work around this, group all the
objects you are working on and select the group. All Tweak modes will
work with individual objects inside the group, and any objects created
by the Duplicate mode will also be part of that selected group and
therefore immediately tweakable.

Don't you think duplicated objects should be added to the selection ? I tried the tool before reading your entire mail, and I must admit I would never have thought of grouping my original object. If we don't know this, it's very very frustrating to re-select all objects.
