Comment (by erengy):

 Bumped into this when a customer was unable to edit the discount label of
 a product. The text was in Turkish, which is written left to right. The
 issue may affect two other LTR languages (Basque and Kurdish) as well.

 Using the following Python script on https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr-
 json:

 {{{#!python
 import json
 import os

 for locale in os.listdir('./cldr-numbers-full/main/'):
   with open(f'./main/{locale}/numbers.json', encoding='utf-8') as file:
     data = json.load(file)
     numbers = data['main'][locale]['numbers']
     percent_format = numbers['percentFormats-numberSystem-
 latn']['standard']
     if percent_format.startswith('%'):
       print(f'{locale:<10}{percent_format}')
 }}}

 Output:

 {{{
 eu        % #,##0
 ku        %#,##0
 tr        %#,##0
 tr-CY     %#,##0
 }}}
