I think it is confusing and not sorted correctly. There are categories in Window Managment>Desktop Effects:

Accessibility
Appearance: This has things I don't think even reflect the title of the category. And why does it have minimize and restore windows animations? Shouldn't those have their own? It also has the "Fall Apart" animation. Shouldn't that belong to the "Window Open/Close Animation"? When applied, it overrides whatever you choose in "Window Open/Close Animation". I'm a bit confused. Bottom line, this one has a variety of things, not only appearance things.
Focus
Peak at Desktop Animation
Tools
Virtual Desktop Switching Animation
Window Management
Window Open/Close Animation

Could very well be my rusty English, I don't know. Am I the only who thinks that this section of the settings is kind of mixing many things?
