Widget::set_direction exists to override the default UI direction for a widget so that capability exists.

This is correct. I think the RTL layout for the trees would be desirable, but the problem would be mixed LTR RTL contents that happens because of the untranslated English text. For MS Word, even the style names are translated, so the output ins nice looking, but when the style names are English, the result is not always visually attractive. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148432 --- Comment #7 from Caolán McNamara --- I'm not sure there is a general solution when using the LTR UI to get good outcomes in the dialogs with such lists of RTL text. It is possible to override the direction of individual widgets but in the general case the text that will appear in the list is arbitrary. One could try and bubble the "document language" around the place and override default direction based on that, but its a big amount of UI to attempt to try and tackle that widget by widget -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

But - this becomes a problem when you fill up the UI with document content - which is what happens in Navigator. It also happens in the xref dialog (bug 131725). The worst part of it is how you get the ends of labels rather than the beginning of labels. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

If you're asking how other applications behave with wholly-RTL documents, the answer is - I don't think I even use other applications which edit documents with a specific document-level directionality.
