In that document we find:
.start li {-moz-margin-start:100px;-moz-padding-start:100px;}
.end li {-moz-margin-end:100px;-moz-padding-end:100px;}
which can be written as:
.start li { margin-left: 100px; padding-left: 100px }
.end li { margin-right :100px; padding-right:100px;}
.start:lang(he), .start:lang(ara) {
.start li { margin-right: 100px; padding-right: 100px }
.end li { margin-left :100px; padding-left: 100px;}
}
Now, there's a bunch of Arabic and Persian language codes, so you would
have to extend the selector to get complete coverage.
Using language codes as hooks would be an incentive for people to use
language codes.
Cheers,
