Re: [alreq] Recommended symbols/signs for Paragraph and Section

I would be surprised to see bidi mirroring for the Return Symbol. Most of the mirrored characters do have another codepoint assigned for the mirrored glyph, and that's been mostly the rule of thumb to *consider* giving codepoints bidi mirroring property.

I don't think U+23CE RETURN SYMBOL has had a mirrored glyph encoded in any charset or font. Although, I'm guessing that there could be cases that people have gone into the trouble of making one, so they can document the software behavior better.

I'm wondering what was the solution in bidi-enabled word processors of the early 90's, like Zarnegar and the Perso-Arabic enabled Mac. IIRC, MS Word 6.0+ has always used the same glyphs as English/Latin for other languages/scripts/directions.
