Also in Chrome bug:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8141

I am not a native speaker, and I am not sure which way is better.
Would like to get a confirmation that this is designed by intention or this is
a bug.

Following is a comment from a native speaker in Chrome's bugdb.

"all i know is that as a Hebrew native speaker (and i can speak for most
Israelis as 
99% here use windows) having to click right to select left is very confusing
i am sure there is a reason for that in an LTR aligned box as it's that way in 
windows too, but in an RTL box we all got used to... meaning the direction we
are 
clicking ;)"
