It has a lot of bearing for people.  Proper usability testing would have
pointed that out, and Canonicals decision not to allow the toolbar to be
on the right if users wanted is completely ignorant, more ignorant then
the joke of a Usability test Canonical did... more of a joke then a
requirement of a Usability test requiring users to be as they put it
"employed full-time or to be full-time student"...  Or that you even
bothered to ask about design when you were testing usability which
should have focused on usability, not "isn't this purrty."
