Still very WIP, but I am revamping the Obsidian UI for right-to-left languages such as Arabic, Dhivehi, Hebrew, Farsi, Syriac, Urdu.

So many questions I had never thought about:

- Which way does a "back" arrow go?
- Do progress bars fill RTL?  
- Are slashes in paths reversed?
- Do window buttons get mirrored?

- As "Back Arrow", communicates direction as an icon, is mirrored: so "LTR".
- Yes. B/c its a representation of content flow (the way content fills), so better fill RTL.
- Seems subjective. Not much to say, but we can think of it as a dot "." . There is no time element in it.
- Same as 3.
