My reasoning was that this is one of the basic faces we provide, so

When the paragraph direction is right-to-left, the numbers
automatically appear on the right. You should be able to see that if

There's a technical problem with doing that, which I couldn't solve.
It would also slow down redisplay, while performance was high on my
priority list when working on this feature.
