There are quite a few thorny corner cases around BiDi editing and cursor
movement, I don't think there's any point in having a discussion about this
stuff unless we have a handle on what we want to fix and exactly how we plan
to fix it.

Also, IMHO, it would be better to iron out some of the basic BiDi bugs in
Chrome & WebKit before embarking on this stuff.

Best regards,
Jeremy
