here's a challenging question from the XeTeX mailing list. Somebody
gave a challenge of how one writes units or rather: if it is possible
to get rid of latin keyboard entirely, for example if one is able to
retype \includegraphics[width=10cm,scale=5]{...} in arabic/possibly
greek interface without using the latin keyboard)?
In either case I think that one should convince the author to take
ConTeXt instead of LaTeX to rewrite the commands ...

Just take a look at mult-def.lua and you will see that there is already 
a persian interface ... defining commands in any language is possible 
already right from the start of mkiv.

Anyhow, I just tested it and found out that in the process of adapting 
code to some new luatex functionality I didn't set some catcodes right, 
so you need the beta that I uploaded a minute ago.

Attached is a file from the test suite.
