IIRC, I was worried that it might be a dead end, sort of a hack, which
users of r2l languages wouldn't be happy with in the long term.
That may be true--but even if that is true, but might be a good thing
to install it now. Sure, we would like something better such as Eli
is working on, but I don't think he will have it ready soon.
If that will take another two years, we may as well have the emacs-bidi
code in the mean time, rather than nothing.
