Looking for BiDi-related contributions [message #154631]

If anyone has prior experience with BiDi, we would like to enhance the
draw2d.text package to support BiDi. The means a TextFlow would be split
into fragments for each BiDi level, in addition to each wrapped line. A
fragment from one figure may be part of a word which is continued in the
next figure, so fragments will need to have trailing and leading directions
which can be merged with each other. BlockFlows which provide lines need to
support setting and querying of direction, and LineBox must look at fragment
directions when committing a line. TextFlow must use shaping control
characters when painting. I'm sure there's a lot more to it.

Thanks
