Caroline, great explanation; I've got only one doubt - your thesis assumes that users in every moment see only one thing they are just looking at. They notice button when they look directly on button.
I have the impression that - at least more advanced - users notice distinctive, characteristic elements even without spotting: when only that elements appears in sight. That's why in general case visual distinction between actions (i.e. using green color button for "accept" and only text-link for "cancel"), linked with proper tab-indexing looks for me as the most important thing; far more important than placing button on the left or right.
