Yes, you are correct that the "exact" locale used is difficult to determine
in the dri generation stage. The actual locale selection employed is
currently in the i18n transformer that is using fail-safes to select the
available language. This transformation stage is long after DRI or even
theming has completed.
I thought about this a bit... It really should have been a feature of the
I18NTransformer in Cocoon. In light of this, another quick/theme based
alternative may be to add an xhtml to xhtml XSLT Identity transformer that
would be executed after the i18n stage in the theme pipeline, using it to
catch the applied locale with some sort of message key added specifically
to designate ltr or rtl...
It would come after this point in the pipeline:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-xmlui/dspace-xmlui-webapp/src/main/webapp/themes/Mirage/sitemap.xmap#L157
Then you could render the xhtml:html/xhtml:head/xhtml:link css choice
and/or xhtml:body tag settings via the presence of the ltr or rtl message
