Help needed: where is the best location for the microwave?

Where would you put the microwave drawer in the layout below? I've had it located close to the corner between sink and stove, but now I think it's way too close to the sink, and not easily accessible if one of us uses the sink.

DH uses the microwave to speed up the cooking, he likes it close to the stove/oven, while I use it mostly to reheat leftovers or make myself a cup of tea, so I like it closer to the sink and the fridge. Is there any downside to the island-corner location that I haven't thought of? Anybody else have their MW in their island?
