Windows controls: new button layout

I'm just annoyed that this setting (and locking my workstation when it goes
to screensaver -- probably others too) was applied on a dist-upgrade without
any prompt. I don't want a macified interface -- it doesn't feel natural to
me, partly for the "uses Windows the rest of the time" argument (I work on
Windows, home is mainly Ubuntu except for some games where I have to
dual-boot).
It would have been super-nice if a user's gconf settings weren't tampered
with at upgrade. I don't ever recall an upgrade changing my config in the
past. I don't know if the change came out of some system of overlays (I'm
not a gconf expert, I'll admit), but it still would have been great if the
post-install script could have asked me before just letting it be.
