minimize on the left with the other buttons on the right wouldn't make much=
=20
sense. the point is keeping the close button by itself, otherwise you may a=
s=20
well shove every button over there.

it's a matter of categorization and positioning, with the aim to make it=20
easier for people to sort it out. there's also the Fitt's Law issue with=20
having maximize in the top left, though few seem to care about that (grante=
d,=20
it mostly benefits people using maximized windows)

i know that there are people who are very used to all the buttons being on =
the=20
right and don't like it any other way. i'm just not sure that's a good enou=
gh=20
reason to submit everyone else to that as a default.

anyways, i'm happy with letting lubos do whatever he deems Good Enough(tm) =
for=20
his window manager.
