Still persistent in Saucy Salamander. It's sad that this is still not implemented.

This allowed me to use fitts law to change the volume (a frequent action) without looking away and distracting me from my current task. Now that the volume applet is gone and its just the volume indicator in the indicator applet, there are two problems: 1) Volume indicator placement is not regular. It depends on application startup order, which is not constant from boot to boot. So even if I move the indicator applet to be the right most applet, there's no certainty that the volume notifier will be on the right. 2) Even if the volume indicator is the right-most icon in the indicator applet, the indicator applet has an invisible boarder, causing mouse-wheel scrolling to not land on the volume indicator so changes in the volume level do not occur. I feel volume changes are a more frequent action then logging in and out of a session, it seems silly that a corner has been dedicated to the "power button" applet by default. I can of course handle this poorly chosen default if its something I can modify, but that doesn't seem to be the case here.
