Hi,

this post will only make sense to those who speak hebrew or arabic
as you know, the selection in windows of text in a mixed hebrew
english text is at best a joke
nobody understands it natively, and the cursor (caret in windows
jargon) movement is
also very awkward (right goes left, left goes right.... you know what
i mean)

my point is this
if i get it right (i did debug chrome for the last 2 weeks)
you seem to have written your own controls,
so why not do it right this time for the entire arab/hebrew world ?

since you anyways use UTF16 and you it has all the "chars" neccessary
(the change direction
and pop direction and the like)

wouldn't it be great if chrome would make RTL the way it should have
been ?

i would be happy to do it myself, i have all the knowledge to do it in
windows
but i, of course, am still kinda new to chrome so i would prob need
some help in doing it

also, if you like this idea, there needs to be someone who can help me
with the arabic part

this is a huge task, to be sure, but i think it would be worth doing,
especially that the hebrew support in windows
has been really bad for years (don't know how mac/linux handle it)

so any thoughts will be welcome, you can also say "NO, Thank you" and
that would also be cool
