Left position of »Save changes« button on issue creation/editing leads to confusion and misclicks

Summary

Usually save buttons are positioned on the right below a textarea / form. The left positioning of the save button in issue creation and editing is very confusing despite the green color. It has led me to lose data by pressing the cancel button multiple times.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create or edit an issue
  2. Write some description etc
  3. Out of habit click on the button in the bottom right

What is the current bug behavior?

The »Save changes« button is in the bottom left and you clicked the cancel button.

What is the expected correct behavior?

The »Save changes« button is in the bottom right. The cancel button could be left next to it.

Possible fixes

Move the »Save changes« button to the bottom right, as expected from other platforms and forms.
