  Apart from me preferring the application icon to be on the left, I like this 
layout a lot. The 'good reason' that this layout was rejected was that it was 
unlike other operating systems out there. The layout make sense from a 
usability point of view, as it gives you the two most used options in the two 
easiest to reach positions and, as was pointed out earlier, it separates the 
two options that, apart from both of them being very used, also are almost 
diametrically opposed.
