I don't see it is a bug.
RTL text layout depends on control characters and meta attributes to establish
the fragments hierarchy and individual direction for each span.
PDF images contain only the pictures of the letters, and there is no simple,
automatic way to put them into the correct reading order.

Maybe there should be a new RTL-specific editing operation implemented, "Visual
<-> Logical conversion", which would allow fixing this manually.
