 Additional thoughts:

 I think **option C** feel most natural to me personally.

 I think **option A** could work if we restrict what types of words we use
 for the secondary action. For example, we could say that you shouldn't use
 words that describe literal forward or backward motion (e.g. back, go
 back, next).

 I almost pressed the “Clear” button because I thought it would be a submit
 button, based on the placement.
