@dashua There is no option to "reverse the button layout" in the appearance settings off the bat. The only time I have seen this option come up is if you pick either of the two new themes and then manually edit the gconf settings to change the buttons to be on the right side. At this point if you go back into the appearance settings and pick the other of the two new themes it will put the icons back on the wrong(left) side, tell you that the theme was made for buttons to be on the wrong(left) side and THEN give you the option to revert the buttons back to the way you had previously set them up using gconf.

It would be nice if they gave us the option to move the icons to either side regardless of where they are set currently and regardless of what theme has been selected.

It would be even nicer if they would just concentrate on improving user experience instead of frustrating it for no valid reason.
