This is not possible, without some very dirty trickery that will make the
page non lynx-browsable (iframes)

However, until we have software on the server to convert logical Hebrew to
visual Hebrew and/or we decide to move to visual Hebrew, such a post
should be converted to visual Hebrew before letting it get on the site.

One such simple convertor is the command-line fribidi from the fribidi

charset, and avoiding padding:

  fribidi --nopad -C ISO8859-8
