Those are two sentences; the second is basically valid, the first isn't. If I
replace טארק with trak, the Latin letters appear in the wrong order also: I see
kart, not trak, just like in Hebrew we see טארק while in fact what's typed in
is קראט (the letters follow QWERTY on the keyboard, sort of).

So, this is an RTL issue, but it's not Hebrew-specific. And actually it's
multiple issues:

1. Letter ordering reversed
2. Typing enter can make you go up rather than down a line w.r.t. how the
letters are facing (i.e. you type Enter, type some text, and you've typed the
_previous_ line's content. A weird experience).
3. Mis-rendering: Typing or deleting some of the text occasionaly keeps a part
of the previously-rendered text still painted while it no longer exists,
supposedly.
4. The red triangle. You see it, right? I'm not imagining things... where does
that come from?
