Seconded. Plus:

- Printing.

- Fine-tuning of Poppler rendering. I reported once that CM fonts look too spindly in TeXworks on the Mac, causing eye strain, and was answered it's the design of CM which is to blame, that CM fonts weren't designed for screen rendering and are inherently spindly. That's true of course, but only to some extent: with all the other PDF viewers I've got hold of, CM fonts are rendered bolder than with TeXworks.

Here's exactly the same bit of text, in Textures (a venerable commercial Mac TeX implementation dating back to the mid-80s), TeXShop (the Mac-specific inspiration for TeXworks), Acrobat and TeXworks. The weight of CM is about the same in Textures and TeXShop, slightly smaller in Acrobat and significantly smaller in TeXworks.
