I agree. The right solution is to find a font where the characters are
mirrored. Unfortunately, I don't know of many that have mirrored
characters, although I know someone found one for use in the MathML spec
where some examples were needed. I'm afraid though that I didn't find the
details in a quick search. Maybe someone else can give a URL where you can
download it.
