I'm also interested in how we would indicate the right to left persian text if the feed is not Unicode or has no Unicode control characters? Thank you Felix, this wiki page was very useful - http://esw.w3.org/topic/its0505ReqBidi It would seem using a combination of the dir and xml:lang attributes would be enough to specify all languages in RSS/ATOM?
