See below:
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a bookmark with the following location
javascript:(function(){if (document.dir=='rtl') document.dir='ltr'; else
document.dir='rtl';})()
2. Open a text file (can be in Hebrew but English is fine) in which some lines
fit the viewport width and some do not.
3. press the bookmark (this changes the page direction from LTR to RTL, and
works fine for HTML pages)
Actual Results:
The shorter lines become aligned to the right edge of the viewport, and the long
lines remain aligned to the left.
Expected Results:
Everything should be aligned to the right of the canvas, i.e. when you scroll
right all the way you should see the rightmost character of each line.

here's a text file for those of you too lazy to get one elsewhere.

I can't see how this relates to the "margin: auto" CSS property, or to nested DIVs. Of course, there may be some behind-the-scenes linkage of these issues of which I am not aware.

You know, I'm not at all convinced this really depends on bug 96394.

This was fixed by the fix to bug 318116 (which technically is a duplicate of this bug, I guess). Note that now there's no horizontal scrollbar on the testcase, but this is OK, since the containing block (the <body>) is not RTL.

Mass-assigning the new rtl keyword to RTL-related (see bug 349193).
Keywords: rtl
