I don't need a screwdriving facility, really -- I just need to drill
holes in kitchen cabinet doors prior to fitting handles etc. Or in
breezeblock for hanging pictures and shelving. Or through tiles, maybe.

Once you start putting in screws with a drill you will never want to go
back to putting them in by hand. If you have drill with torque control
(which I believe is the case for the vast majority of cordless drills)
it is so simple and quick you will wonder what a screwdriver is for.

Before you drill tiles for the first time make sure that you are
familiar with the variable speed control of your drill and get yourself
some proper tile drilling bits. Slow and steady is the key.

One drill I used a while ago had a small dial on the trigger which could
be used to limit the speed. I found that to be a useful feature but it
doesn't seem to be very common now.
