@Mark:

For Ambiance/Radiance new themes... why not. But concerning other themes, for instance Dust, what will be the final position?

When side have been made theme dependant a few days ago, old themes came back to their right side origins... Only new defaults were left.

Yesterday, after updates, Dust become left sided... Maybe other themes are also affected, I didn't try them all?

So my last questions:
-Is this an error for Dust that will be corrected?
-If this is not a mistake, will left side propagate to all themes before release? If a subset of proposed themes will go left, can we have a list?

IMO, old themes should remain right... new position should come with new themes only: This would permit to those who prefer their current environment to keep it unchanged if they find new defaults not convenient.

Maybe Ubuntu is not a democraty... but to hurt users with no easy alternative, this would be dictatorial: The problem you'll face is I dont't think dictatorial attitude in a free software world can last for long!?
