There is currently no way to flip a table horizontally (i.e., to reflect a facing page) and have text in proper format.

Currently no workaround other than manually editing the facing master page. 

 

See post below.

See post below. 

Flipping horizontally or vertically creates an horizontal or a vertical mirror image. Thus your text is reversed.  It is surely not a bug, whether in Publisher or Designer.

As you are discussing Publisher, it would have been better to post this in the Publisher bugs forum, not the Designer bugs forum :)   (Perhaps a moderator will move it when they have time.)

But actually, the lack of a function that you want is not a bug. I think that what you have is a suggestion for a possible future function, and most appropriately belongs in the Suggestions for Affinity Publisher on Desktop forum.

@jmwellborn is correct, by the way. When you flip a container you also flip its contents. For example, if you flip a shape, and then convert that shape into a Text Frame, the text you put into it will also be flipped.
