New issue 8172 by progame: Caret position is wrong when typing RTL text in  
an LTR box
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8172

Chrome Version       : 2.0.16.1 (English version)
URLs (if applicable) :

Other browsers tested:
     Firefox 3: OK
          IE 7: OK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Type a Hebrew (for example) word in the text box at the buttom of this
page.

What is the expected result?
The caret should stay left, as that's where the last typed letter is


What happens instead?
The caret moves to the right part of the word
unlike in IE and FF where the caret stays left

This screenshot compares that behavior between the 3 browsers:

<html>
<textarea rows="2" cols="20">
</textarea>
</html>
