Hello,

-We should make OpenOffice's Writer (& other components) automatically switch :

-the language,
-keyboard layout,
-numeral formatting (whether Hindi or Arabic),

when the user select Right-To-Left document layout (e.g. Arabic). The CTL 
(Complex Text Layout) language will be set according to "Tools->Options-
>Language Settings->Languages" (such as Arabic (Saudi Arabia)).

-The numeral formatting (Tools->Options->Language Settings->CTL) should be 
automatically set according to language selected (e.g. Hindi when "Arabic 
(Saudi Arabia)" is selected). This is set by referring to common numeral 
system usage in the specific country/region.

-The language, keyboard, & numeral will be restored when he/she select Left-To-
Right (normal Latin) layout.

-Also, the Hindi & Arabic numerals should be able to CO-EXIST inside ONE 
document; eg. mixed in one line, side-by-side.

#References:

-These features have long been inside MS Office :
(1)Tools->Options->Edit->Auto-keyboard switching (MS-Word 2002).
(2)Tools->Options->Complex Scripts->Numeral->Context (MS-Word 2002).

You should give attention to this issue. Most Asian users will appreciated 
this feature when it's available.

Thank you.
