Correct, bidi is being more or less applied. This is about alignment.
The Arabic words will be in the correct order, the character will be
properly shaped and joined and in the correct order, but the words
will simply appear starting from the left, in this visual order:

word1_English word4_Arabic word3_Arabic word2_Arabic

Instead of this visual order (imagine that this is justified towards
the right of the page):

word4_Arabic word3_Arabic word2_Arabic word1_English

which is what I want...
