Unusual reactions for crosswords, perhaps (9)

I believe the answer is:

creations

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'crosswords perhaps' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'unusual reactions' is the wordplay.
'unusual' indicates an anagram.
'reactions' with letters rearranged gives 'CREATIONS'.

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for creations that I've seen before include "products" , "Reactions to inventions" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
