I'm not sure about previous versions, however, this is built into Mint 19. It can be found in the System Settings or via the Mint Menu: Menu / Preferences / Desktop
My review is "Like it", simply because I don't want to discredit a package that others will need... That said, I'm pretty sure this is an ubuntu related package, which Minters do not need to install. I installed it some time ago (I like to tweak. A lot!); but I can't find it anywhere in menus? And when I run it with alt+F2, it does *nothing* - there is no "failed to execute" error, which would have indicated, it wasn't installed after all.
