Arjun, are you drawing some conclusion from this? The users will likely
leave the mouse wherever they needed it last - wherever the last thing
they clicked on might have been. I don't think I'd attempt to read much
more than that.
However, I think I remember Tog commenting on accessibility of right
corners of screen vs. left corners of screen at some point, but I don't
remember the details; does anybody else? I think it was part of
prioritizing the the five most easily-accessible points on the screen.
Wherever the mouse happens to be at the moment, and then the four
screen corners, in a particular order.
But I suppose this starting to stray off topic, as a navigation window
is not a screen...
