I see the comment but there doesn't appear to be any reason for it! I think they're just not thinking of the non technical user. If my girlfriend, her parents or my dad (all Ubuntu users but far from technical) saw the term "User Interface" they wouldn't know what it was and they certainly wouldn't click on it because it has the term 'Interface' in, which sounds technical and low level. They are quite happy to click on a button that is labelled "Appearence" though as it has more meaning to them. It's this sort of terminology that just puts people off Linux and keeps its reputation as a techies playground. The designrs should remember that people who aren't technical, especially those who are older, are afraid that what ever they do on a computer is going to break it and unfriendly names like that is just going to intimidate more.
