The distinction between Appearance and Window Manager settings is confusing

Description

Created attachment 3970 Where I have to go now for style settings

When I want to change style of the desktop environment, I need to go to both Appearance and Window Manager. The former has color settings, the latter has decorations and windows behavior.

I think this is confusing. It could be better to put Window Manager/Style tab into Appearance, name it as "Windows". Then Appearance will have all the style and color settings, while Window Manager will have only window behavior settings.
