This is intended behavior according to the release notes:

«The tool will work on any number of selected objects; for example, you can select all (Ctrl+A) and "smear" your entire drawing by Push mode or paint it by Color Paint mode. You can also apply it to groups of objects; it will go into groups and act on individual objects inside groups.»

No sure what you mean by this video comment: if you deselect the group every time before switching to the tweak tool, there are no objects to be tweaked (the tool itself cannot select objects):

«If you're trying to use it without anything selected, a message will appear in the statusbar reminding you to select some objects.»
