This reminds me -- just how is all the RTL magic for styles handled?

Page currently says "Thanks to ResourceLoader including CSSJanus, CSS is
automatically flipped to right-to-left when the user language is RTL. This
is default since 1.18 (in previous versions it was dependent on the wiki
content language <https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6100>)."

However styles for content should follow the content language, while styles
for UI should follow the UI language; are there multiple sets of rules, or
all the rules setting stuff appropriately based on whether it's in an .rtl
or .ltr section and it all just works out?
