--- Comment #9 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
>From looking through our existing bidi handling, seems like we could benefit
from refactoring to more completely implement the UBA of Unicode UAX#9 [1] and
the ICU libs API 'ubidi' [2] implementation directly. 

Perhaps even taking this opportunity to refactor and drop our legacy
Western/CTL/CJK script--locale model, which currently drives our BiDi support,
and its awful UI as has been suggested in bug 104318.
