Matthew Hodgson:

> wot if you're left-handed?

You've got much bigger problems than default buttons then. :-)
 
> or use a mouse in your left-hand, but are actually right handed?

I'd say you're confused. :-)
 
> basing click-options solely on predominant handedness seems a little odd to me

Life is unfair, but this is just best practice. :-)

On a lighter note, my sister is left-handed. She's reconciled with the fact
that the vast majority of homo sapiens are not and adjusts to the
pre-dominant reality however she can. She tells me that the thing she minds
the most is not the placement discrimination but the inconsistency of it.

It depends.
If it didn't, you'd be out of a job.
