Vish : yes, it is implemented in older theme (like crux). I don't know
why it is not implemented anymore. The fact is that it is a feature
offered by Metacity and that I don't understand why a theme might choose
to not implement it "by design".

I totally understand the "send your patch" answer but, in this case,
someone was willing to provide a patch and, by closing this bug, it is
answered that a patch would not be accepted anyway. (and my guess that a
patch from Thomas Thurman would be of very high quality).

Accessibility is, I agree, out of the scope. It was part of an
experiment I was doing with users that lead me to discover that bug. I
shouldn't have talked about that here.  (This led me to conduct some
experiments with older metacity themes like Crux, Gorilla, you know that
kind of old stuffs, not really shiny)


And yes, you are right, it should be reported against the new default theme too.


Ubuntu has experimented putting the buttons on the other side of the window and 
I believe that implementing those buttons in new themes might maybe led to 
other experiments that might be useful (or not, but there's no way to know).


Don't get me wrong : this is not a major issue, I agree that is very low
priority, I would not kill for it ;-)
