On a related note, support for "logical properties/values"[1] has become mature in recent years. These are alternatives to directional-based properties (top/left/bottom/right) which are adaptable to switching content/text directions.
These have been standard on mobile platforms for a long time now (e.g. "leading" and "trailing" on iOS), good to see them making their way onto the web. They make building a language-agnostic UI a much more reasonable task.
