Small correction: This has nothing to do with the theme. Metacity
themes do not specify button layout. Themes specify how the buttons
look, and Metacity sets the button layout based on a user preference.
But, yes, the default Metacity layout is the Windows layout. And that
amounts to the same thing, i.e. it's the Gnome default.
