Screencast for RTL bug

When typing spaces in RTL mode the spaces go to left of the cursor and the text is draged with it to the left! See the screencast.

I am almost positive this is a dupe but a couple things:

1) Please don't set your bug to BLOCKER - we are not going to block a release because of this and marking it as such does absolutely nothing to get the issue fix;

2) Please refrain from exclamation marks in the title - again, does nothing, seems like your yelling, not helpful at all;

3) Please provide clear reproducible steps in your bug reports;

4) Please provide details about your system;

5) Please tell us if this is a regression (is this a new problem)?

6) Please tell us if this actually affects anything or if it's just the placement of the cursor (i.e., does this actually impact your ability to work with RTL or is it just the visual placement of the cursor)?

For now:

Marking as:
NEEDINFO - provide answers to all of the above and then set to UNCONFIRMED;

Normal - default, for now this is appropriate, please do not change it;
Medium - default, do not change it.

Sorry for the confusion. Just to let you know that as of release 5.0.0.3 LO is no longer supports Arabic and Farsi on Mac OS 10.05 and 10.10.4. I will delete it and go back to version 4.4. Or use Pages. If you look at the screencast you will see that it's incompatible with RTL.
