[Fedora-trans-ar] Arabic issue #20: A request for an API solution of reversing the arrows.

[Munzir Taha]

The image of the pointing arrow needs to always be reversed in 
QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory(), ::getOpenFileName(s)() 
and ::getSaveFileName() when the layout direction is reversed. I believe Qt 
should implement this on the API and attach it to the reverse situation.

Now the left and right arrows on applications/dialogs/widgets should be 
swapped when dealing with a right-to-left language. We need to always do it 
as follows as mentioned by blanchette's book:

    if (QApplication::reverseLayout()) {
         backAct->setIconSet(forwardIcon);
         forwardAct->setIconSet(backIcon);
    } else {
         backAct->setIconSet(backIcon);
         forwardAct->setIconSet(forwardIcon);
    }

Is it too expensive if I ask for this to be somehow on the API?
