Research direction

The issue provides only a reproduction video and Material Library version 1.8.0; no file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the LTR-text animation inside an RTL search bar and tracing the relevant search component. Done means the animation behaves correctly in that configuration, with regression coverage if a suitable test location is identified.
