"Delete All" and "Refresh" at top of inbox

Title:
"Delete All" and "Refresh" at top of inbox

Area:
Inbox

Summary:
I suggest moving the "Delete All" button at the top of the inbox away from the "Refresh" link.

Description:
I'd like to suggest moving the "Delete All" button that's located at the top of the inbox away from the "Refresh | Manage Settings" links. The current layout has them fairly close to each other, and if a user isn't paying attention, it's a little too easy to hit "Delete All" rather than "Refresh."

The proximity issue is most prominent in the Celerity site scheme, since it has the vertical sidebar, but they're still pretty close in Tropospherical.

I'm not sure what the best solution might be--to reverse the positions of "Delete All" and "Mark All Read"? to move the "Refresh | Manage Settings" to the left instead of the right? To use some kind of <hr> rule to separate those two levels a little more prominently so that there's a clearer visual demarcation between them?
