BiDi issues

http://elcuco.blogli.co.il/archives/149 discusses this issues and shows how it 
was
fixed for KDE's Kate, though his method of detecting the most prevalent text in 
the
line will not give the result that most people expect, I prefer to go the 
Unicode
BiDi algorithm way (the first strong BiDi char).
The source code may show ways to get around other BiDi issues as well

I managed to get on-the-fly direction switch by enabling "Enhanced support for
languages written from right-to-left" in the interface tab of qtconfig. Now 
right
ctrl-shift switches direction to RTL and left ctrl-shift does the reverse (I 
looked
for this for a while, never known it was their).

I think what remains now is the auto direction detection
