Figma's UI already supports RTL/LTR text direction and shows a direction toggle in the sidebar. But this property isn't available through the Plugin API.
Is there a reason textDirection isn't exposed on TextNode? It would be really helpful for building RTL ↔ LTR layout conversion tools. Right now we're stuck using textAlignHorizontal as a workaround, which doesn't fully replicate how native RTL text behaves.
Would love to see something like textDirection: 'LTR' | 'RTL' | 'AUTO' added to the API. Is this on the roadmap?
