140894: Screenshot: Bug manifests with Impress, not with Writer

... and of course I managed to mess things up with my last screenshort. Sorry,
it was just LTR. I was thrown off since the Arabic was messed up already in
that state.

So, now here's a screenshot of the English+Hebrew and the English+Arabic
strings, in RTL and in LTR, in Impress and in Writer.

Reproduction for my screenshot - Impress:
1. Open Impress.
2. Edit the slide title (I used the title and set the slide layout to
title-only but that's not necessary
3. Type the following text (copy the next three lines)
LTR
English – עברית.
English - العَرَبِيَّة.
4. Now copy the entire title box; place the copy under the original
5. Edit the bottom copy's text
6. Replace the word "LTR" on the first line with "RTL"
7. Set the bottom copy's direction to RTL

Reproduction for my screenshot - Writer:
1. Create a new document.
2. Type in the following text:
LTR
English – עברית.
English - العَرَبِيَّة.
RTL
English – עברית.
English - العَرَبِيَّة.
3. Set the top 3 one-line-paragraphs  to LTR, and the bottom 3
one-line-paragraphs to RTL.
4. Set a large starting indent on the 3 top paragraphs, so that they start
close to whether the bottom 3 paragraphs are rendered rather than the far end
of the page.
