Actually, I think maybe your diagram is right and your box does not represent
the cue box, but the video size.

Think of caption authoring in this way:

1st you find a place on the video into which the text should go. This box
depends heavily on the context of the video content and the speaker. So, if you
decide to make the cue box only 50% width and place it , then you have decided
that the text should go into that area.

2nd you write the text into that box. Whether that text is ltr or rtl is
irrelevant.

Anyway ... I'll get back to you on the rest.
