I was wondering if anyone is aware of any work related to reversing the OS X menu bar and menus for true right-to-left language applications?

By true RTL I mean coupling language localization with actually flipping the entire menu bar so that the Apple Menu and menu items appears on the right side of the screen (instead of left), and the various shortcut icons appears on the left (instead of right). Additionally, menus would now open right to left extending leftwards across the screen (instead of rightwards).

Any thoughts or ideas would be helpful.

I'm pretty sure that this work would have to come from Apple, as a lot of the stuff you're suggesting changes to (especially the SystemUIServer stuff) would have to be changed on their end.


Filing a bug is probably about all you can do here.
