One thing bugs me about the GNOME way of doing things. OK is on the right, cancel is on the left, great. Consistent and easy to get used to.
But...with client-side-decorations, these dialog buttons are often present instead of the window buttons (i.e. close/minimise/maximise). But the window buttons are on the right!
So you want to close a normal window with window buttons? Top right. You want to cancel a dialog box that uses CSD? Top left.
This confuses my muscle memory to no end, as I have to check if a window is a dialog box or not before I can move my mouse to close it. And it's not like they'll eventually make every window a dialog box - accidentally opening gnome-terminal will always be a normal window to be closed with the close button and not a dialog button.
I think the best solution is to switch the Window buttons to the left like Ubuntu used to do.
