        Just to underline: not /all/ platforms agree on this.
        Microsoft has OK on left, everything else has OK on the right.

        So if we did put OK buttons on the right, Microsoft users
        might complain since they're used to it being the other way
        around. (shrug)

        Seems like this should be controllable from the API until
        the platforms all agree, but I'm thinking the default
        should be opposite of what FLTK has now. (IMHO)

        I'm not sure how to call this one since the platforms
        don't seem to agree.

        Microsoft does seem to be the odd man out, though.
        And it sure makes more sense for OK to be the far right
        (the common thing to hit), and cancel and other oddball
        buttons proceed to the left.

        It seems having an API option for this would be best,
        with a comment in the docs explaining the discrepancy
        between the platforms.
