Eli, of course you are right that there is a way to represent it
logically (the original). I doubted that converting visual to logical
can be done simply by applying the same rules of logical-to-visual,
this is probably such a case.

My suggestion is simple 100% fool proof way to achieve visual to
logical while preserving most of logical benefits (an even simpler
solution is to leave the string in visual order and just add an LRO
at the beginning and a PDF after the end, but then it is working in
visual environment).

Ehud.
