UI Tweaks for Binary Ninja.
As of now, the tweaks seem to be rather stable on Ubuntu 16.06 and Windows 8.1, other platforms are unknown.
Place the tweak-installer.py, .tweaks, and UITweaks in the plugin directories.
Available tweaks are listed in .tweaks. If you want to disable certain tweaks, you can comment them out by prefixing them with a #.
By default all tweaks are enabled.
The BinaryNinja API does not expose the current view, or current function through the PythonAPI. You have to get them from a Plugin callback. These Tweaks operate independantly of the plugin system, but they need access to the current view and function. In order to solve this problem, we register a function plugin callback that is invoked (via a leaked QAction) when we need the current function or view. This is super hacky, and results in a lot of spam in the Log window (because everytime a plugin completes, it prints out the time it took to execute).

If you have suggestions for UI modifications, open a pull request and we can talk about it :)
- Ubuntu 16.04, Win8.1 (only platforms tested)
- Binary Ninja [Version 1.0.dev-579]
- PyQt5 [Python 2.7] (Ubuntu Repo Version) (Built from source on Win8.1)
- binja-ui-api
Instructions for building PyQt5 for Python2.7 on Windows will be released shortly. In the meantime, I figured it out from these two links:

OSX testing will be coming in a bit, I want to get Win8.1 and Ubuntu settled first.
This tweak allows you to sort the function list via a header at the top of the panel. Clicking on the panel will change the sort direction (signified by an arrow pointing up or down).
Gives you a high-level overview of your function - similar to IDA's. It's located in the Graph tab next to Xrefs. Click on the graph to move the current view.
