Traditionally in Windows, KDE, Gnome and every other window manager and 
operating system I've seen the button ordering went in the order 'Yes', 'No', 
'Cancel' however in GTK now the button ordering is 'No', 'Yes', 'Cancel' 
which is really annoying and unlike Windows, BeOS, KDE and every other window 
manager I've tried except for Gnome and maybe XFCE since they both now use 
the new GTK.
