Sorry Alan, but this is *still* completely irrelevant. If there is a yes/no
or no/yes dialogue, that in itself is a bug.

The change is specifically for: negative / affirmative. So:

  Are you sure you want to delete this file?
  [ Keep / Delete ]

  This file has not been saved, do you want to save it before you exit
  Gnumeric?
  [ Don't Save / Save ]

These are terrible examples off the top of my head, but they are what the
HIG and usability teams are aiming for. They do *not* destroy any
familiarity with the comfortable feel of Yes/No, because our dialogues
should never invoke it.
