It's also the fact that 'User Interface' is meaningless to most people
non technical. I'm not so concerned about the positioning of it as
people can find it if it has a sensible name (although you're right, the
beginning is better) but with a name like User Interface they're likely
to avoid it. It's a poor choice of name and had no justification for it
in the design.

Title:
  System Settings 'User Interface' name is bad in 12.04

Status in Ayatana Design:
  New
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I updated my 12.04 installation and noticed that in the System
  Settings section that Appearance has changed its name to User
  Interface. That name is a term that beginner users will not be
  familiar with and will most likely avoid clicking. Appearance is a
  much better name and has more meaning for the end user. These sorts of
  terms need to be avoided if Ubuntu wants to target less techy users
  and portray itself as a user friendly environment.
