Mirrored part creates left handed thread in drawing

This is nit-picky for sure, but it also seems like a simple fix. When I'm modeling a part that is symmetric I typically model oneside and then mirror it about the center plane. When I do this the automatic call outs for threads show the mirrored threads as LH, I know this is technically correct, but come-on, practically no-one is mirroring parts and expecting the threads to flip direction.

I seem to remember this being discussed quite recently and IIRC is in a list of bugs to be fixed. Someone else with a better memory than me might be able to confirm whether this is the case.

If this answers your question please mark the thread as solved as it can help others find solutions in the future.
