New issue 6816 by [email protected]: Header/footer placement when printing  
RTL pages

 From Jeremy:

a few of us were discussing the correct placement of headers & footers when
printing RTL pages, we just wanted to post the question here to open up the
discussion.

I've attached a scan of how we currently print a webpage, we put the date &
page title in the header and URL & page number in the footer with the page
number on the right side.

The issue is under what circumstances to flip the header and footer so the
page number and date are on the left side of the page.  This is useful if
you print a few RTL pages, bind them together and expect the page numbers
to be on the opposite side from the binding.

IE & FF appear to always print the header and footer the same regardless of
page directionality or UI language (they never flip).

 From some internal discussions we were thinking of flipping ONLY if the
following two conditions are true:
1. Chrome's UI language is RTL.
2. The page's directionality is RTL (it doesn't ever seem to make sense to
flip the header & footer for an English page).

Does anyone have any input on this proposale?
