I tend to think that we should start with 

\def\ArabicUTF
  {\ArabicDirGlobal
   \usefiltersequence[UTFArabic]%
%    \reversesectionnumberstrue
   \switchtobodyfont[omarb]%
   \ArabicDirGlobal}

\ArabicUTF

\setuplabeltext[figure=استخلاØ~]

so, no reversing; the question is, why isn't this piece reflected in arab while ok in reflected english
