At the last Internationalization and Unicode Conference, I presented a paper that looked at the problems of displaying (X)HTML or XML with bidi text. (http://www.sw.it.aoyama.ac.jp/2005/pub/IUC28-bidi/IUC28.html, see also http://www.sw.it.aoyama.ac.jp/2005/pub/IUC28-bidi/ for more pointers)
An implementation technique I'd like to see is to simply use background color to indicate which weakly-directional characters in a bidi string have been reordered by the algorithm. That way if I see e.g. >" with the "reordered-background-color" I can either do the rearrangement in my head or add a direction override.
