OS: Win(7,8,10),Mac (10.12.3,10.11.6),Linux

Pre-condition:
1. Select ‘Right-to-left’ option of #force-text-direction flag.
2. Enable #secondary-ui-md flag.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch chrome and click on Star icon top right corner. 
2. Observe Name field text.

I performed the steps listed and the output was exactly as I would expect it to look (on Linux.)

By the way, --force-text-direction=rtl is strictly to be used for testing.

abombde@etouch.net: this is a new flag intended to aid testing of RTL text and it is working as intended. If you have some reason to believe it should not be doing this, let us know.
