I haven't had a chance yet to try the new
F18 installer and barely have had a chance to play with my F17->F18
upgrade box. However, I'm most curious if the new installer has considered
or already gained what I'd consider a subtle improvement in becoming mouse
button agnostic. I'm a "lefty" (handedness, not politically
which doesn't belong here) and always reverse my button order so that their
arrangement is as natural to me as they are for a "righty" in
that the button closest to the keyboard is the primary button. In
the past, Anaconda had no need for more than one button, so why not treat
all buttons as equals? In other words, any mouse button click should
be handled identically.
Now, if the mouse pointer could also
reverse upon detecting the apparent handedness of the user, well that would
be one of the coolest UI tricks ever. (Oh and while I'm dreaming,
might as well magically change all UI labels and documentation for mouse
buttons to be 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. instead of "left", "right",
"middle".) I've been adapting all my life, so I won't be
too disappointed if none of this materializes.
