Deferring to john to verify if supporting RTL in those elements would be
consistent with other design requirements. For example, the
intangibility of the position of the launcher, for support reasons.

Bug description:
  Most toolkits properly deal with right-to-left, properly inverting the
  UI.

  When doing ISO testing, I noticed it's not quite the case for unity
  greeter and unity, here are some notes of the inconsistencies I
  noticed:

  = Unity =
  - Launcher is on the left, identical to a left-to-right system
  - Indicators are on the right, identical to a left-to-right system

  I'm not sure what's the best as I'm not a right-to-left user myself,
  but we should either have Unity also invert its UI, making it
  consistent with what's done in the greeter's panel.

  [This report previously also covered RTL in the greeter, which is
  tracked separately in bug 834386.]
