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!
