I'm part of:
2c people who don't even notice that they switch sides

Even after hearing online a whole bunch about how "zomg the kde buttons
and the gnome buttons are on opposite sides i keep clicking cancel by
accident!!!11!" I still haven't noticed it.  Read the buttons.  If it
says "OK" or "Close" it keeps your settings.  As long as it's at the
bottom, it'll be obvious that those buttons make the window go away, and
the one that doesn't say "Cancel" is the one that saves.  Do people
actually memorize things as "click on the button on the right"?  Really?
I don't think so.  I've never heard directions be given like that.  It's
always "Click OK."
