I also want to mention that now, an LGPL-ed library for bidi is available
now, which was not the case when we were in the deep discussion here. It's
Fribidi (http://fribidi.sourceforge.net/), and I and a colleague are
working to add explicit bidi support to it. It will be the first
GPL-compatible Unicode-conformant implementation.
