RIght-to-left layout

Hi,
I just saw a bunch of bugreports about RTL issues in KDE applications and then
wanted to test what Plasma looks like when run in -reverse mode.
The result is … disappointing.
C++ written plasmoids and containments such as the panel or the calendar
mirror fine whereas QML stuff such as systray popup, battery monitor, plasma-
nm don't change at all.
When I add
LayoutMirroring.enabled: true
LayoutMirroring.childrenInherit: true
to the battery plasmoid, the entire UI flips over and works just fine except
for some glitches in the Plasma Components (slider doesn't mirror, checkbox
doesn't flip)
So I was wondering if enabling this by default (and fixing the components too)
would be a good thing to improve UX for this part of the world. Or at least
really something to bear in mind for Plasma2.
Best,
Kai Uwe
