An image showing the English version on top vs the Hebrew version on bottom. the issue is easy to spot.

Problem description: 
"Element dock" appears RTL aligned, with bad bidi braces in the Hebrew UI version and possibly other RTL languages.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the "Math editor", or open sheets/writer and Insert->object->formula
2. go to the brackets, samples or any other category with formula that contains brackets in "Element dock"

Current behavior:
In the "Element dock" - 
Brackets direction is reversed, and most of the <?> elements are misspositioned (before a symbol, rather then after), also some symbols are mis-spaced.
In other the formulas are treated as if they are ment to be written RTL instead of LTR. It looks bad.

Expected behavior:
In the "Element anchor" - everything looks like the english version, possibly right aligned.
