> Cordova dialogs should support BIDI text

>                 Key: CB-7499
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7499
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Android, Plugin Dialogs
>    Affects Versions: Master
>            Reporter: Mike Billau
>            Assignee: Mike Billau
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: bidirectional, globalization
>
> Since API 19, Andorid has had the facilities to deal with bidirectional text, 
> however, current Cordova notification implementation does not correctly 
> handle bidirectional text in dialogs.
> We can see this is the case by first setting the language to Hebrew and then 
> launching the following dialogs:
>     navigator.notification.confirm("Pure English !!!", function(){}, "7"); 
>     navigator.notification.confirm("עברית היא שפה מדוברת בIsrael !", 
> function(){}, "8");
> Since we are in Hebrew, the base text direction will be RTL. This means that 
> when we see the second notification with the Hebrew text, it will be 
> right-justified. When we click and see the "Pure English !!!" notication, 
> because locale is RTL, we should expect to see: "!!! Pure English" and it 
> should be right-justified, however, we still see "Pure English !!!", left 
> justified.
> http://w3-03.ibm.com/globalization/page/publish/4353
> Ideally you should be able to just add   android:supportsRtl="true" to the 
> manifest, however, this is doesn't seem to ne enough without setting the text 
> direction to the locale for all of the dialogs.
