Direction arrows.

Hi Diego!

We do not have a chapter about RTL languages yet, but it would fit in very 
nicely with the planned "Internationalisation" section in the introduction:
http://wiki.openusability.org/guidelines/

If you (or maybe some other translators) are willing help write that section 
or provide us with content, then this would be a great help to us.
