--- Comment #3 from Jonathan Clark <[email protected]> ---
With the fix for bug 118350, we now correctly handle Start and End paragraph
alignment. Those alignment options are now available for use in the paragraph
dialog, but otherwise everything works as it did previously.

We can now discuss some UX changes to make using this feature easier. Eyal
included some suggestions to consider in the original report.

My suggestions:

- We should make Start the default alignment. LTR-only users won't notice a
difference, but it's conceptually pure and a nice improvement for RTL and mixed
cases.

- I think we should keep the four-button cluster as-is, but quietly make the
Left and Right buttons apply Start and End alignment, instead. This should work
in a smart, context-sensitive way; so, for example, clicking on the Right
button would apply End alignment if the paragraph is LTR, but Start if RTL.
Activation states should work in a similar smart way, and also show as
activated if the absolute Left/Right values are used.
