Nope, the alternative is to place the caption above the control. The drawback
of very left and very right alignment is the distance between label and
control, which makes it hard to associate both. Right aligned captions moved as
best as possible to the left is the opposite. However reading through the list
of caption would be easier when the labels are left aligned (and the controls
right of these as best to the left). 

Did a survey for KDE some time ago that shows the preference for label attached
to control. As Jay says, we can run a similar survey once again. Would be
interesting to see if there are differences between OS users.
