Comment on attachment 81712 [details] Patch The rationale behind this change seems a bit obscure in general. I guess at the very least you should say why do you want to do this.

I guess at the very least you should say why do you want to do this. I can update the ChangeLog to say something like: Do not follow the natural writing direction of menu list text, but do follow the menu list writing direction. This matches the behavior of Chromium and modern OS X machines. This will mean that the menulist text-alignment will override the natural bidi alignment of the text.
