<pre>In fact, the bug applies more generally than I had previously thought - it
doesn't require importing a DOCX:
1. Create a new Writer document
2. Make sure the default style's direction is LTR
3. Type in some text (doesn't really matter, you could just comment on an empty
paragraph, but to be nice.)
4. Insert a comment with a single paragraph of text - enough text to require
multiple lines in the comment box
5. Set the comment box paragraph's direction to RTL, manually
6. Save as DOCX
7. Close the document
8. Open the file you just saved
The comment will have LTR direction. If you do this via an ODT rather than a
DOCX (in step 6) you won't get this bug.</pre>
