Comment:

 +1

 A more compelling argument would be made if you provide examples from
 popular sites and software. Our a foundation in design.

 Trac here uses the same style of layout that WP trunk r7271 (2.5-beta1)
 current does.

 Gmail and other Google properties have the logout far right.

 Facebook does not -- maybe. The difference here is that all of the
 facebook links are in the context of your account, whereas the other
 WordPress links are to help, etc.

 30boxes has [username] | Settings | Logout | Help [[br]]
 which I suspect is a similar approach as ours.

 Still, I +1 this change. The corners of a screen have high mouse
 accessibility, and should be reserved for the (in theory) highest
 frequency action (of a person with intermediate experience with the
 software).
