Well that is strange.

The standard shortcut on windows is Left Alt+Shift for switching back and forth
between RTL/LTR languages, atleast thats what i've been using for years. I use
the same one on linux.

But with ctrl+shift toggling LTR rather than only working with its defined
shortcut key, it makes it quite a chore to select text with the keyboard for
RTL users, because one it switches to LTR you have to select in the opposite
direction to get what you were expecting to select and you also have to switch
the paragraph back to RTL once you are finished.
