And how does it differ from SWT.RIGHT_TO_LEFT? Can a control be RTL and =
not be mirrored? Or vice versa?

If a control's RTL, it is also mirrored. You can't create a control =
that's mirrored (that style is ignored). So then what is the point of =
having SWT.MIRRORED? What does it get you that SWT.RIGHT_TO_LEFT =
doesn't?
