I thing I have figured out is to just out the settings as a shortcut. It does make it one extra step to get to systems.
I hope this helps you out in some way better than none.
Depending on exactly what you're looking to "shortcut" to, there is the settings widget. Will give you quick access to things like Wi-Fi menu and Bluetooth
Click on app drawer
Widgets
Find settings
Drag it onto your home screen
Will give you options for what you can shortcut
Hope this helps and was what you were looking for!!
