Hey guys,
 Well this is just another , friendly . complaint about the buttons on the left 
of the window title bar!!
I would like to preface this with the statement made by mark shuttleworth:

"Moving everything to the left opens up the space on the right nicely"

 Mr. Shuttleworth...with all due respect..that statement is a bit  
"wobbly-eyed" :)
moving the buttons left or right will open the opposite side of the title bar 
equally,, I see no advantage  to opening the right side of the title bar over 
keeping the left side opened!
  Further more...I think it would be more appropriate to have a tick box...to 
change positions of the buttons...for left and right handed people... to have 
the buttons on the left for  "suspicious æsthetic" reasons is no more than a  
lack of creativilty..
I say that because it has always been easy to switch locations of the buttons 
in gconf...at least as far as I can remember.
So the reasons for this are , at best,  un-creative and kind of a smack in the 
face for those of us who have used gnome ... pronounced...."nome" with silent 
"G" by the way... for some time.
  I suggest ..again... a tick box  or several options for buttons on the 
left...buttons on the right...and buttons in the center...
in fact a  small grouping of options..easily accessible by the user  to change 
locations of not only the buttons but also the title on the title bar itself.

coz
