I strongly prefer `left' myself.

When indicators are on both the left and the right, it's harder to
keep track of them.

I don't understand Luc's complaint about the boundary icons
"interfering" with other fringe indicators on the left -- there don't
seem to be any common cases where that happens.

[`indicate-empty-lines' probably does do a better job of indicating
"after eob" space, but I think it's unacceptably annoying given it's
current default icon.  If the icon was made less in-your-face, it
might be acceptable.]
