the value of the choice is being used in the icu invocation.
np to remove it at the level of findtext and dumpfragment. 
but i'll only ask for some guidance on how could i access the pdf doc in
dumpfragment and findtext, so that i could put the method choice at the level
of the doc loading.
again, this is a matter of nuance as to the flavour of rtl visualization
methods.
later, a default choice could be intelligently guessed based on various doc
meta data.
would this be ok?
