[Feature request] Make an option to switch interface from righ- to left-handed mode

This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >75 is welcome to improve it.
As originally was noted by @Tobbe in his question some UI details are not always convenient for right- or left-handed people.
To make my suggestion more visible to everybody I'm starting a new topic here by @hyper_sonic request.
I think it would be great to have a general option in setting to switch between right- and left-handed modes for ui. That would be really unlike. As @raketti originally wrote this could be implemented as a mirror UI -option.
Please, feel free to add your ideas here on how and what can be done to make Sailfish UI more adopted to people with different "best working" hands. Or for those who (like I do) can use both their hands equally depending on the situation.
There's just one thing in the UI that I have found that is "handness-dependent" and it is the placement of the "open" confirmation button in the lock screen PIN entry.
Incidentally that is actually better for left-handies, since it is in the far right lower corner which is difficult to reach with yout right-hand thumb without dropping the device! :)
