Bidi behavior in internet doesn't follow a pattern. This is an example from my daily experience: - Some just doesn't care, if your interface language is LTR, you see text as LTR and other way around. - Telegram text editor cares about the first character, if it's RTL, the whole line will be RTL - Gmail editor makes the text RTL if you have even one RTL strong[1] character in that line. - Twitter has a majority system, if number of RTL characters reaches a certain threshold in that line, the text suddenly jumps to the other side. From what I've seen in most places, each line gets judged individually (like Gmail/Twitter) If we want to bring that to here, my suggestion would be to make the text LTR in the RTL env if it's all components are LTR (label, desc and alias) which would make the list jump between left and right and I hope it should be fine given the small width of the search menu but if the width is large enough, it'll make the reader's eye to zigzag and that's not that good and all being RTL (status quo) would be my second choice.
