At the moment "clear direct formatting" also clears the text alignmentback to the default which is left alignment. This is great for LTRtext, but looks weird for RTL text. The proposed solution would be toalign the text, upon clearing direct formatting, according to theparagraph directionality.

Hi,

Do I understand that right: When writing RTL text, the default paragraphstyle is "Align left", but it's overwritten when writing in an RTL language?

I have no experience with RTL, but wouldn't it make more sense to setall styles to "Align right" when using an RTL locale?
