It seems that any control that is created in a Composite whose orientation was set to SWT.RIGHT_TO_LEFT will move to the opposite direction when you try to drag it around in the Design Editor.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new SWT Application Window
2. Go to the source and add shell.setOrientation(SWT.RIGHT_TO_LEFT);
3. Go back to the viewer, place a control such as a Button, and then try dragging it around.
