GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 650999
Nautilus menus are corrupted in RTL locales (Persian and Arabic at least)

Created attachment 188515 [details] Shows the problem clearly. Menu items should be left aligned. In RTL locales (fa_IR and ar_YE locales tested), nautilus menus containing translated texts doesn't appear correctly and they are sometimes hardly readable. While the menu text is expected to be right aligned and shortcut keys come in left (mirroring the way they appear in LTR locales), some of the menu texts appear floating in between and some of them are in left, overlapping with shortcut key descriptions. This is only observed in nautilus and other gnome applications (e.g. gedit and gnome-terminal) work just fine. An screenshot is attached.
