(continuing here so I don't look crazy over there... I'll make a post on
the "main bug" saying I posted some rantings and ravings over here)

Then why even have the background window as a part of the overarching
appearance window? I can tell you that I personally have clicked the
"appearance" button in preferences fewer times than I could count on my
hands in the last two years, ever since I learned that "change
background" brought me to the exact same place. I use it to set up/test
fonts, install/test  changes to themes, and yes, I even use it to add a
whole bunch of wallpapaers, and then proceed to use just one for about a
release cycle. I'm not saying that the wallpapaer section shouldn't be
the first thing you see, I do think that's the thing people will use the
most often. But it is not at all a jump of logic for a person to see the
word "appearance" and not still understand they can change their
background there.

Having checked, Windows now uses "personalize". Is that going to throw
off a user looking to change their wallpaper? Well... I don't think so.
