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.

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.
