In a LTS for custom peoples to use them left - show them that Ubuntu have a new Brand with a new design (CHANGE).

Top-Arguments for left are:
- Gnome 3 (Commando-Bar and Activity are on the left)
- new feature arrives in the perfect 10 (10.10)
- shorter mouseways after a short training
- it looks better

Top-Arguments for right are:
- consistence with the close-buttons on tabs etc.
- it's like Windows - peoples comes normally from Windows or use it in their Job.

But really! If you want change the buttons to the right, you don't need a terminal or have to play with the gconf-editor!
You can do the this change quickly with the theme-appearance-editor. Only choose for example "Clearlooks" - click on the button "Adjust.." - choose as theme Ambiance/Radiance - go to the Window-Tab and choose Ambiance/Radiance -- leave/finish.

I never understand why it's so a polemic thematic!? Honestly, I am happy that Mark took that decision and go straightly and seriously with the new slogan "Change".
