Unsure if there is something broken in RTL, I haven't had a chance to check.

about:robots looks fine as-is on latest Nightly, and removing this block:

body[dir=rtl] #icon,
body[dir=rtl] #errorPageContainer:before {
  transform: scaleX(-1);
}

... seems to have no negative effect.

There's no more #icon, I think, but the :before on the #errorPageContainer still exists.

This flips the robot, when it works (which it doesn't right now). It looks like fixing that'd make sense - it makes more sense for the robot to be looking along the text rather than in the opposite direction.
