Description:
The installation instructions say 

"In addition to the core installation, the Package Installer also includes Section 2.4.3, “Installing the MySQL Startup Item” and Section 2.4.4, “Installing and Using the MySQL Preference Pane”, both of which simplify the management of your installation."

Neither of these was included with the distribution I downloaded.

How to repeat:
Download the Community server 5.6.21 and view the contents of the download.
