You can add two tabs to Disk Utility's Preferences panel. First Quit Disk Utility if it running, then launch Terminal and run these two commands:
The first command adds the new Burning tab; the second adds the Internal tab. Launch Disk Utility and open its Preferences to see the two new tabs. Just be careful changing some of these extra preference items; Apple hid them for a reason!
[robg adds: Just when you think all the secrets are out! I put the commands in a scrolling block to make it easy to copy and paste each line. The Internal tab includes this warning, as shown: Apple Internal ONLY. DO NOT LOCALIZE. In looking at the two tabs, I'm not sure I see anything that looks all that interesting to the typical user ... but perhaps someone will find this useful. We've also got this older hint that enables additional disk image formats in Disk Utility.]
