Lens distance adjustment screws

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that the lens adjustment screws should be adjustable with your fingers only, not needing you to find a coin or screwdriver? It would be so much simpler. A little knob would suffice. This bothered me with the DK1, and it makes me sad that it seems like they haven't fixed it in DK2.

Yeah, the mechanism isn't great.

Unfortunately, DK2 still uses the same mask part of the device so it hasn't improved much.

I've never used anything other than my hands to adjust them.
I simply hold the screen in my palm and push or pull the other end to suit the distance I need.

I also find that when I put the rift back into the case, just by pushing it down into the case the shell retracts completely anyway.
