I'm asking myself what the benefit of that would be as well. Sure some users 
prefer one animation slightly over the other, but I don't see that as 
idiosyncratic enough to warrant a config option, to be honest. Going with an 
animation that most users like and nobody absolutely hates should be enough here.

I don't think developing two different readers in parallel is the most efficient 
use of our manpower. Personally I'd prefer if everyone interested in ebook/PDF 
reader development in PA joined forces to create the best possible reader.

One upside of offering two readers, however, is to test if file association 
works smoothly with Add Ons, i.e. if a user installs the alternative reader, 
PDFs and ebooks should always be opened in that one and if she uninstalls it 
again, everything should be opened with the default reader again.
