Undo, redo, and bullets look fine to me reversed. Cant reverse or do anything
about superscript and subscript as it uses english letters. Numbering uses '1'
and '2' which when reserved are flipped which it shouldnt, so this should be
fixed.

Maxim: What do you think of this solution of switching in rtl icons, as
flipping the current one doesnt generate a suitable icon?
