There are plenty of situations where you want a bit of text drawn in a non-flipped context - button titles, for example. You don't need a complex layout but the actual glyphs still need to come out right. If the text system didn't do this we'd have to used a flipped view for everything with text, which would make things very complicated.

Personally I'd prefer if all contexts/views were flipped by default, as that seems more natural as a programmer, but that's another argument (and another one that's never going to change).
