dont you think that bidi reordered text, looks a little
ugly ? notice the smiley in the second line above, it should
be at the end of the line, which is the left side, not the right
side. i know that its a weak type, and that if you follow it
with another arabic or one of the RLE, RLO chars it will be
properly positioned, but shouldnt the bidi algorithm be more
helpful ?
my IRC chats really look ugly, because all the punctuation is put
on the wrong side, and a lot of stuff looks weird, anyone else
notice that ??

btw, im not saying programs dont follow the Algorithm, im saying
that i dont like the algorithm's output


ak.
