I upgraded through the Update Manager, and my buttons stayed on the right! I was all set beforehand to go directly into gconf and edit them back to where they should be, but was pleasantly surprised when I didn't have to!

The buttons are where they are. In the default theme they do not extend out to the corner. So clicking the corner should not close the window since that would be outside the button.
If you want to click the very corner to close windows the easiest way is to choose a theme that is designed to work that way. The "New Wave" theme seems to have a close button that goes all the way to the corner.
I too found this unsettling, until I thought about it.
Years ago considerable research was conducted to study how people see and interact with GUI applications. There are some cultural differences, but the overwhelming majority of those of us who read left-to-right instinctively want those buttons on the left, that's where we look for things first, especially children.
As I recall, buttons on the right have always seemed foreign to me. My eyes have to move a long way to find them usually.
But I'm used to it. I think I'll give the other way a try for a while and see if I can adjust.
I could sit around and click "comment" all day. Instead, I'll help bring the Internet to it's knees with this signature, and a fresh download of Lucid.
