I refuse to make "downvote" the most prominent (leftmost) option when voting. And, as I said, some don't like the labels being on different sides of their buttons.

What I plan to do is improve the font/label issues as I outlined above and add a new option for "null vote" (in user settings) that puts the null vote in the middle.

This means that most people won't notice much of a change (just a little bit easier-to-read labels and the buttons a little bit further apart) and yet anyone can choose to have the null vote in the middle to further reduce the consequences of misclicking.
