"،" separator in a Persian paragraph is not as
expected!

Description:
Hi,
I'm a Persian native speaker and a English to Persian translator.
As you know Persian language is a RTL language. When I want to write multiple
English words in a Persian sentence that these English words separated by "،"
separator, the order of English words is not as expected.
If I use "؛" Persian separator instead of "،", the result is as expected.
Someone suggested using "Right-To-Left Mark" character after "،" and that
solved the problem but a guy at Reddit said to report these issue here so it
can be fixed.
thanks
