That sounds like one vote for renaming that file. "BidirectionalTextLayout.cpp" :)

Or maybe BidirectionalWordSorting or similar. Mitz and Hyatt are two of very few to ever have hacked on that file.

"Bidi" is an abbreviation for "bidirectional text", and refers to blocks
of text that use both left-to-right and right-to-left scripts (e.g. a
paragraph with English text that also includes some Arabic text). See:
