A non-gruesome reason to know where the cemeteries are in your location is when someone is doing family history research. If you visit an area where family used to live you can get some useful info on year of birth and other family members.

Actually everNote offer their HWR for Linux but only a SDK. Unfortunately the integration into something like TIP is missing!
About tweaking: actually I’m more tweaking on my Windows desktops because so many things I’m used to are missing or different from my Gnome desktop (where I even like the standard configuration).
