it should be ok if automirroring is on but even then one might expect
some issues
we will cook up a proper bidi support model in the oriental tex project
(not so much the text, but how layout, boxed and other issues has to be
dealt with)
currently hartmut is revisioning all directional issues (we took some
code from omega but it was not always properly/consistently acting in
relation with backend issues in dvi/pdf) and when that is done i'll see
what is needed (the main layout is not the issue, but more details like
boxed stuff, think of llap and friends as well as spacing)
