In CSS, AFAIK most objects have a direction attribute which should be set to RTL for RTL languages.
Another dirtier way of doing this will be adding a 'dir="RTL"' to every <html> tag. In this case I don't know if anything more is necessary.
If you prefer this latter method, I can search around it. But I personally prefer the CSS method. Noting that you have a skin system, CSS method seems a better choice.
Currently the problem, which should be decided upon, is how we distinguish a RTL language from a LTR one? In my previous mail, I suggested adding a locale-dependent file besides
labels.inc and messages.inc and set a global variable there. This decision should be taken by special care from designers.

This could be done pretty fast then. I don't think we have many images
with text anyway.
I am thinking that instead of folders for LTR, this could be either a
seperate default skin. Less complex this way, etc.. Feedback? Ideas?
