Well, we are talking about pages encoded with iso-8859-8, a code page which does not include Unicode bidi control characters except LRM and RLM, and those interact just like regular characters. It is still possible to generate other Unicode control characters using NCRs like ‫, but pages encoded with iso-8859-8 containing such NCRs would be a nonsense. The "raison d'être" of visual pages is to run on systems without bidi support. With no bidi support, there is no motive for the author to use any Unicode directional control character. I expect that there are no such pages whatsoever. Even if there were, it would not be worth introducing a new feature to take care of such sickly cases. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
