Haywain as far as I am aware the buttons and mechanisms on top of the cisterns are usually connected by rods to the syphon unit. They are around a tenner if bought separately from the syphon. The pneumatic ones have flexible tubing (like windscreen washers) and can be mounted on concealing panels rather than directly to the cistern. As it's just tubing it means you are freer in terms of button location.
If you are simply replacing a rod/lever mechanism with a like one then you can ignore my pneumatic issues. But if you were tempted by an "upgrade" then I would be wary.
Finally if it's just a sticky syphon unit due to hard water then I have had success in filling the cistern with strong descaler overnight and then generously applying WD 40 to moving parts. In my case the syphon unit comes out with a quarter turn which makes it easier to whip them out and treat them in this way.
