Forgive me if I'm confusing this bug with the one about moving buttons
back to the right side of the window, but I actually like this order:

gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout --type string
"minimize,maximize:close"

It seems to me that there is some argument is around having the close
button so close to non-destructive menus. So why not move it back on the
right and leave the other two on the left? I'm finding that I kind of
like having minimize and maximize over on the left, just not close so
much.

FWIW, I do prefer minimize on the left of the maximize button. I can't
really explain why.. it just seems right. It could just be an i've-
always-had-it-this-way thing. I can't be sure.

Would it be possible to put a new tab in the Appearance capplet to
control position of the window manager buttons? Maybe if we make this
easily configurable (via GUI) it will enough for people? It'd be nice to
have a little preview of what the top border would look like and allow
the buttons to be dragged to different positions.
