Currently the request list's selected item can be changed with the following arrow keys: - Previous item: Left and Up - Next item: Right and Down Using the Left and Right keys might be a problem because their meaning is only correct in left-to-right locales. Currently in RTL we still use the Right key for "next", and in my quick test it felt wrong. Another related issue is that we use the Left and Right arrow keys in tree structures for "expand" and "collapse" actions. I'm wondering if we should: 1. Not bind the Left and Right keys at all in the requests list 2. Or bind them to "Show request details" and "Hide request details" Yura, do you have an opinion on this maybe?

Or keep them, but make sure we interpret Left and Right depending on the text direction Yura, do you have an opinion on this maybe?
