Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

When using a language pack of a language that is written from right to
left, the order of the menu in the panel changes appropriately, but the
position of the menus on the top panel does not. So, when you open one
of the menus, the arrows on the sub-menus point to the left (as they
should) but as there is no room to open a sub-menu to the left, they
open to the right, as they should not.

The panel should be horizontally flipped for languages written from
right to left, so the menus would be on the right of the panel, and the
tray on the left.

Steps to reproduce:
Install a language pack of a language written from the right to the lef (e.g. Hebrew)
Click on the System menu

** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
