But don't forget, the buttons appear only after you click the "Replace All" arrow, at the left edge of the dialog.
Something I never understood why...
Consider the distance that you need to move the mouse afterward to reach each button---shouldn't the more common case(s) require a shorter distance?
I see where you're coming from on the Gnome HIG, and that is a reasonable approach. But the "Replace All" arrow confounds the logic of that, IMO. If the most commonly used button is to be on the right, then I would suggest removing the arrow, and keeping that section of the dialog always visible, so that there is no need for the pointer to visit the left edge. (This would also make the dialog require one less click, and score UI brownie points by removing a modal element.)
I agree!
