Well the old behavior was certainly buggy, what needs to be done now is this:

> It would have slightly more sense if SetDefaultWritingMode() actually
> just set a default (for e.g. new documents), but that is not the case
> here as it affects all documents.

No idea how to do that, though.

Personally I like how text direction works in Google Docs; if you start writing
in Arabic then the paragraph direction and alignment are set to RTL and right,
respectively, and vice versa. This makes it locale-independent and sensitive to
the actual content being written (i.e. just because I use an Arabic locale does
not mean every single document I wright is RTL, and the reverse is also true).
