--- Comment #27 from Justin L <jluth at mail.com> ---
The easy fix for this example document would be to set the default paragraph
style to a specific format instead of "use superordinate object settings".

For DOCX, I think the RTL problem is because it is taking the locale
(environment) setting and applying it to each paragraph:
>      If a given para is using the FRMDIR_ENVIRONMENT direction we
>      cannot export that, its its ltr then that's ok as thats word's
>      default. Otherwise we must add a RTL attribute to our export list
added pre-docx format in 2002.

Also, the ParaAdjust() function takes it's cue from the environment:
>   if ( nDir == FRMDIR_ENVIRONMENT )
>       nDir = GetExport( ).GetDefaultFrameDirection( );
from original 2010 commit "Some fixes for exporting OOXML docx files"
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=27b1a18b92366ace12bb54c3e21904e2eb380a18

and this detail-less 2007 commit also looks important:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=51099bf6493a7f24990da534c41f314c4624b0a8

So, a potential "fix" to make this act more like the .doc format is
