It does, but only on the device.
As you said, it does not work on ADL. 

The example listed in the JIRA ticket uses the FTE-based mobile skin. 

So if it' sure that FTE-textfield based skins won't work with RTL text, and the 
workaround is simply to use the native stage text, then I could close the 
ticket.
Or do you think it's worth investigating on the reason why FTE-text-file do not 
support RTL on mobile ?

Ah ok.  If ScrollableStageTextInputSkin works in RTL environments, that would 
be great!
