--- Comment #12 from Khaled Hosny  ---
The remaining “issue” is how bidirectional text algorithm works, setting the
paragraph right to left means “this is primarily a RTL text” and this has
implications on how characters with weak directionality (e.g. numbers) or
neutral (directionality) punctuation are handled. I’m not sure what is the real
use case here, but it is really bogus to set LTR text RTL and left align it and
then expect it to behave as if was set LTR.

Tested in:

Version: 5.4.2.2.0+
Build ID: 1:5.4.2-3~bpo9+1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.9; UI render: default; VCL: gtk2; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.utf8); Calc: group

OS: Debian 64bit Stretch (Debian 9.2, with some backported packages)

1. Parentheses seem to be around the right text, in the right place and
direction.
2. Text is now left-justified.

However, the numbers are to the right of the paragraph text instead of to the
left.

--- Comment #9 from Yousuf Philips (jay)  ---
When RTL is enabled, LO treats numbers, periods, and colons as CTL encoded
text, resulting in them not having the correct position relative to english
text that follows it, when they dont have english text proceeding it.

Typed  Displayed
===
'1 Test'-> 'Test 1'
'A 1 Test'  -> 'A 1 Test'
'. 1 Test'  -> 'Test 1 .'
'A. 1 Test' -> 'A. 1 Test'

This is similar to the issue being addressed in bug 69109.
