There are two reasons that I think are worth putting it in the C++ code:
1. Many users who write documents in Hebrew are using the English interface
of LyX, so that changes in he.po will not affect them.
2. If one translates "\\arabic{enumi}." to ".\\arabic{enumi}" it will just
create another problem, because now the numbering in the English text will
show the dot before the symbol.
I haven't verified it, but I think this is an issue with all RTL languages,
and I believe it shouldn't be tied to any specific language translation.

Guy
