Direction of cover action swipe

I suspect that Jolla engineers have already discussed & decided how this works, but...

For me, the direction that I have to swipe an application cover, to activate its' cover actions, is not logical.

For example, just looking at the Phone app cover, it has a number keypad on the left. So, to my mind, I would expect that I need to swipe my finger to the left.

But it works the other way around. So I find I keep on activating the wrong cover action.

Can this not be changed? (I guess it would affect a lot of people!) Or maybe we can have setting for this behaviour?
