I forgot: You can find left handed themes on kde-look.

At least this cursor theme has a left-handed version.

http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=6240

It still has at least a "bug", though: the
hot-spot for the "waiting" cursor 
is wrong.

Personally, I'd like to have the option, too, along with a
way to chose the 
arrows position in the scrollbars (My preference is to have
two arrows, 
grouped in a corner). 

Probably people are concerned of adding more options, and I
can't really 
blame them: one more option is easy to add, but very hard to
remove in case 
of need (people will complain).

Ciao,
Luciano
