"Moving such dangerous button as 'Close' into the mix increases it even
more as you will want to be REALLY careful not to close your window by
accident."

This should be the reason why the ’Close’-button is in the third
place... for ’no’ clicking by accident.

"... there are many elements in one area"

That is the great stuff. It's a good usability-point... I don't see it
negative - the opposite happens. ;-)

> While you might the merfect mouse sharpshooter, keeping in mind the
needs of people with less precise mouse movements is also important -
the precision needed to hit these buttons on the left among all the
other control elements there is much higher than before - people with
special needs and movement problems will have a much harder time
navigating this environment.

Maybe. But even this I don't think it's so grave. The applications with
important datas who's get a change will ask you before closing always if
you're sure that you want close without ’save’ it. The second is, that
the ’Close’-button is in a place there this kind of accidents are nearly
impossible.

"This is why I would recommend the layout of 'minimize,maximize, title
,close'."

Safer, but more ugly. (my point of view)
