Description

The "justtranslated" feature in quickedit.js is very nice, except it doesn't apply the right direction to the result.

I tried to fix it myself, but couldn't find an easy way to get the direction from the language code. Apparently, there is not obvious way to do something like Language::factory() and Language::getDir() in MediaWiki's JavaScript, but maybe I missed something.

A simplistic fix here:
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/18470/

It just applies dir="auto", but should apply proper direction.

If there's no dynamic way to find the direction, maybe it can be taken from the translating <textarea> somehow, but I'm not sure how.

patch merged.
