I was thinking the same thing recently, only I had called them "Minor
Tricks" -- I like your term better..

Personally, Tricks (and now Stunts) help round out a Power Package,
without straying from the "one Power, one Package" idea that they have
set out...

"Tricks" would include anything that could be considered a "combat 
effective" technique, or anything that creates a big, significant
effect;  "stunts" are things that either have no combat effect or
have a very minor special effect...

In fact, it might be suggested that a general rule is Tricks do 
extra things,  while stunts are just special effects on existing 
actions...

Hmmm..  Maybe it should just be better not to try to define it all..
