Description:
Since first installation i've noted that in the mentioned menus there are functional elements that are in arabic language. I've followed the suggestion your telegram group gave me, that is to reset all suite to factory mode, but it didn't work at all, so i hope you can give me some other tips;
My current version is the 25.8.4 in Italian language;
I added the following extensions:
 - b5e24ce5_dict-it.oxt;
 - GallerySignauxDangers.3.1.0.oxt;
 - jilt-5-2.oxt;
 - tradutoroootext.oxt.
Hope you can help me, meanwhile have a good day.

Actual Results:
Tried to reset first, and reinstall in a second attempt, but nothing changed.

Expected Results:
unnecessary menu items disappear


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
nothing else.

Those are Arabic functions added in fb0ecd64011922bc47716f77d4225bca3a8b0858.
Maybe to avoid confusion they could be moved to a new group 'Arabic functions'

@Khaled, what do you think ?

If it is possible to realize, it would be a good idea, surely they could be iportant for an application with large target like LO, but for me are not necessary at the moment, so if it could be possible to choose if they could be showned or not, would be great, IMMO.

Isn’t this the same issue discussed in Bug 163503? If someone can fix it so that people who need to use these symbols can still use Math without degraded UX, please feel free to fix it. I don’t use Math myself, and I wouldn’t mind if the whole thing is reverted.
