Ok, let's talk about that... I mean, the important thing isn't whether this is
marked as a bug or not, but whether and _how_ we can improve the situation.

I agree that this could improve. There are two ways I can think of improving:

1. The full RTL-CTL support should be enabled automatically in more cases; this
is meta-bug 164250. And, in fact, for 26.2 or 26.8, we will try enabling this
_always_, and see what users think about that (we might get negative feedback
from non-RTL users though).
2. When pasting text for which the direction is not specified - we should
autodetect the direction. This is bug 157037 that I mentioned earlier. But that
is not that simple, because if you paste just a few words into a paragraph that
already has a direction - should it get "its own" direction? Should we surround
the pasted text with Unicode control characters RLE/LRE and PDF? etc.

those are my ideas. But maybe you were thinking about something else?
Additional, or alternative? Please let me know
