The browser puts the buttons where they are in this case. But it doesn't matter. The point is, that many people don't read what they are clicking. If they see a box that blocks their progress, they click it away without reading it. That is why Firefox [and /.] have little timers on the OK buttons for installing addons [and posting comments]. The people who complain that the OK button switches sides just want to click without thinking. Let the muscle memory do the hard work. The fact that the button keeps switching sides probably saves them more trouble than they know!
