--- Comment #13 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
Wait, is this really a bug? 
There is no omission as the control has been available as UNO for some time,
and both function as a toolbox control toggle, and both assert on sd Text boxes
(Draw and Impress).

.uno:ParaLeftToRight and .uno:ParaRightToLeft
"Left-To-Right"           "Right-To-Left"

In writer they are assigned
<Ctrl><Shift>+A -- is assigned to paragraph Left-to-Right
<Ctrl><Shift>+D -- is assigned to paragraph Right-to-Left

But they are simply not assigned in Draw/Impress; but can be done trivially
from Tools -> Customize.

As to assigning <Ctrl><l-Shift> and <Ctrl><r-Shift> no LibreOffice (or OOo era)
shortcuts currently distinguish between Right and Left keys; e.g. l-alt/r-alt,
l-shift/r-shift or l-ctrl/r-ctrl.

IIRC, for the Unicode toggle we briefly tried differentiating l-Alt/ r-Alt, bcz
of conflicts with r-Alt and its overloading as <AltGr> but had to back that
out.

So, actually two questions here:

1) to pick a set of shortcuts cross module <Ctrl><Shift>+A / D as now in sw, or 

2) agree to expand the complexity of the keyboard mappings to be able to
implement l-Shift/r-Shift usage cross platform, and then for which specific
keycaps/names?
