No, I'm not native BiDi. It was only acquired around the age 20. 
;-) And most of my writing in Hebrew on a computer in my life has 
probably been to debug various Hebrew editors that I wrote...

No, I didn't edit it. I just liked it so much so that I made it
available on my website for a while until it dissappeared 
in my big crash about half a year ago. I'd be happy to receive
another copy.

Regarding Qt, I think they may be willing to accept changes once
we finalize what behaviour we really expect.
