[John Lea <1045346@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

In the Beta 1 release of 12.10, the unminimize animation has changed to
using the "magic lamp" effect.  This is incorrect, and this change needs
to be reverted to the previous "Glide 2" plus Fade effects.

Both visual design and Christian Giordano (who is responsible for Unity
animations) and reviewed this change, and request that it be reverted to
its previous value.

Marking as 'Critical' because this is a very visible user interface
regression that needs to be fixed asap.

Any animation changes really need to be run past Otto and Christian
*before* they land; if there is any questions of whether something needs
to be reviewed before landing ping me on IRC.
