Regarding the ORDER of languages, we have a tie. Should we take that to a
VOTE? --
[Andrea wrote:] Maybe sort by Name (with non-Latin at the end) or by
language code?
[Aviaras wrote:] In indices containing entries of different alphabets, it
is a good practice to sort them separately, e.g. starting with the Latin
entries, then moving to the Cyrillic ones, and so on.
[Ariel wrote:] Mozilla has a language listbox at the bottom of their site,
and they sort via ISO codes. Wikipedia as a language list at the side, it
seems that both sort the list according to the Latin transliteration, or
something similar.
[Marcus:] For OpenOffice I would suggest to do the sorting via ISO code. As
they are shown in the list it's understandable for all - also for
non-native speakers.

OK Marcus, I suggest to leave it RTL, but left align it. Will fix it.
