Adobe Illustrator uses "Effect".

So what?

I really don't get it. "Effects" sounds perfectly logical because it what we have in that menu. "Effect" would imply that there are certain "effect objects" in the document, that one of them may be current, and that the commands in this menu operate on that current effect. All of these assumptions are true for layers, objects, and paths, but none of them is true for effects. Therefore we have "Layer", "Object", "Path" yet "Effects". Anything else would be confusing, for the reasons I just gave.

I'm against this change.
