When you log in or unlock, there's a zoom animation where the "desktop" gets bigger to fill the screen.

To me this feel a bit too severe. The effect should be a subtle "ta da" moment, rather than making you feel like you are racing down a dark tunnel. The attachment tries to describe what I mean.

Changed subject to clarify that this is not about the overview zoom for instance.
