Usability issues in Tortoise SVN 1.8.0

Hi,

tsvn 1.8.0 introduced
the "Show log" button in Commit dialog and
"Merge" button within Commit confirmation dialog.

I don't know much about the reason of introducing them,
but these buttons disturb me during my work.

I was always used to have the "Ok" button being the first on the
left side (Ok/Cancel/Help) and the mind/hand/mouse collaboration
was always perfect.
Right now, I always have to take a supplementary step, to focus my
attention to these buttons, just to avoid pressing one of the new ones.

I never missed the "Show log" in Commit. It may be useful.
But I strongly disagree with the "Merge" button in Commit's result dialog.
I don't know why it is there, but, it is not possible to just hide it in
the case
of a successful commit?

BTW, maybe it was already there, I noticed the "WC" short notation for
Working Copy
within Explorer's context menu entries.
I cannot stop me read this as: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flush_toilet

Best regards,
fonitzu
