[Bf-translations-dev] About RTL languages

[Dalai Felinto]

Last time we discussed that I asked for both Persian and Arabic team to
gather some examples in other FOSS projects that reinforce one or other
solution.

I find hard to believe Blender is the only software struggling with that ;)
If someone can take a look at that would be great.
