Part of the localization process in Cocoa is to create your localized nib/xib files.
This includes adjusting interface elements and layout accordingly so that it makes sense for different languages/cultures.
Even some ready-made interface elements don't think left-to-right... so you may want to customize things appropriately.

By default, controls use the 'natural' text direction of the system locale. That means left-to-right in most languages, but right-to-left in Arabic / Hebrew / Urdu. So I believe that if you leave the direction alone, it will do the right thing.
