You won't be able to do it using a metadata plugboard. Calibre doesn't expose that field for modification by a plugboard. You need to edit the book to set it.
Something I did forget is that the device extracts reading direction when importing the book. This is put into the database. The Update Metadata function in my Kobo Utilities plugin can set this. From memory, I added this for someone reading Manga.

*my first thought is, does it make it display text from right to left, as well? In other words, would it be like looking at the page in a mirror? Or is that a separate flag?

The text direction can be set in the style or the CSS. For languages such as Hebrew and Arabic, you would add "direction:rtl" to the class used.
