I'm not sure the two statements above jive.  Also keep in mind that
some of us are not on linux systems (and don't possibly have access
to Gnome/KDE and are without Arabic locale :-) I'm forced to use
a workstation which I have no control over running Unix/solaris
(this question, in passing, should also be of interest to windows
users).  In short if the application (in this instance Mozilla) has
that support, do please let us know how best to utilize it - otherwise,
if there is a hack, what's becoming of it.  Will the hack/code be
available to users ?  Has (or will) it be submitted to mozilla.org ?
