Edit area font problem

It seems that the font used in the editing area (Roboto Mono?) has a problem with its alef and ayin glyphs: it seems it has reversed U+02BE (alef) and U+02BF (ayin). See this screenshot (sorry it's a tad large!):

The red circle has (believe it or not — but it's true) the same U+02BE character as the green circle in the rendered version. But the edit area one is backwards (= U+02BF), which is quite disconcerting!

I have seen one other font has this flaw (Spectral, if you're curious), and I haven't installed Roboto Mono locally to confirm. (Can anyone confirm?) But if it's NOT a font issue, then ... it's an edit-area issue of a different kind.
