Description
### Describe the problem
Using the editor for translating to RTL languages may be inconvenient when trying to keep a certain length for lines.
Since English is LTR and the translation box is RTL I can't determine the right length of the text.
### Describe the solution you'd like
Some sort of cue to show the right measurements for the original text in the RTL textbox.
### Describe alternatives you've considered
There are several alternatives:
1. Copyin the line to the translation box and remove it when unneeded.
2. Disable RTL mode momnentarily and then switch it back when needed.
### Screenshots
This is what happens when the text is aligned right:

This is what I can see when I switch to LTR:
