Re: BiDi bug?

Normally that should depend on the contents of the heading.
French and English text should be rendered left-to-right even if the formatting
direction is right-to-left. Arabic and Hebrew text should be rendered 
right-to-left
even if the formatting direction is left-to-right.
If we apply the bidi algorithm the section number should be displayed at the 
left
when the heading contains French or English text and on the right when the 
heading
contains Arabic and Hebrew text. But I agree it seems strange to display 
bullets at
the right and numbers at the left.
I'll check with our Internationalization experts.
