Repro. The insert left/right commands are not found in the oldest versions.

This is not quite a "bug", more like a faulty assumption in the choice of words. Actually, what LO implements is "Insert Column Before" and "Insert Column After" - and in LTR sheets, To the Left = Before and To the Right = After. Now, one of two things should happen: Either the feature be altered to actually insert to the left / to the right, or the text be altered according to what the feature does.
Also, it's the exact same issues with Tables in LO Writer - if they're Right-to-Left-directed. I'm in favor of altering the text to say After/Before, because it sounds better alongside Above/Below.
Heiko: you just did a similar change for Writer table row inserts, so throwing this to your lap.
We changed the before/after thing in Writer to left/right recently. And the icons are pointing towards left and right, so I think the better approach is to switch left/right in case of RTL. The patch is here https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/60022/, review pending.
The patch was not good so we changed now the captions to Before/After (accordingly at Writer too).
