Approximately a week or so ago Ayman Negm (aka XSnack) noted on IRC
that he's looking into a patch to curses/slang/?? to add Bidi/Shaping
(he noted that he has resorted to lots of trial-n-error), I've also
heard that there is a patch already floating about but its author is
hot-n-heavy into finals at the moment (sorry, I can't access my other
machine to pull down the necessary info).

Ayman, you out there ?

All these details can (and should) be gotten and coordinated from the
folks on #debian-boot (irc.freenode.net).

Salam.
