Khaled:

I agree with OP, that there *is* a problem here. Again: that's not the problem
of rendering! There's nothing to Unicode bidirectional text algorithm. The user
is able to manually create good-looking text if user performs some special
actions; i.e., citing comment #0,

Of course, text *rendering* should not place some formatting characters
anywhere they aren't present in source. But the problem is not rendering, as
already said multiple times; the problem is *input*, which should analyse the
situation (current IME mode?) and insert those characters at input stage, when
the string is created from keyboard. So, I suggest you to revert your decision
to dismiss this, as UX-wise, this is a horrible bug actually.
