No, because a lot of speakers of RTL languages will read emails, blog
posts and village pump notifications about it in English and will try
to understand how it applies to their projects. Let's try to prevent
the confusion from the start.
Do they not notice that the interface is flipped between LTR and RTL
languages? Intuitively it seems like that would be the assumption, that
right would simply become left.
That said, it does seem like a better solution would just be to refer to
the thing by its function rather than position anyway, mind you.
Functions are important, and if they're not important, well, that's a
problem all by itself.
