I got a bit carried away.
The reversible one is still sold. It's the cheapest. It's an all or nothing flush.
The recommended kind with an alternate shorter flush has a button instead of a lever and it is centre/middle top. You can either press the entire button or a smaller button inset to the rear edge. So no reversing needed.
I keep meaning to swap our handle as the install was at the left side (installed 1985, but we moved in in 1998) and the right would suit better. But there is actually a second blank plug on the side. The handle has to be on the front of the side where the water pipe attaches, so choosing side is only easy at install time. I'd have to replace the plumbing.
I've not examined how the water gets into the newer tanks and if it can go in either side.
