Of course. That is what the "bidi" in the name stands for. Don't forget
that unlike most other browsers, all the widgets of the mozilla browser
are in fact presented by its layout engine.
As a sample page, see: http://forums.nana.co.il/files/82976_logical.html
note that I couldn't set the font for the text box, and I couldn't make
the window title use hebrew text (I use an iso8859-8 font for window
titles), but I haven't taken much time configuring this.

It works now on hebrew windows, which is even a bigger problem, because
hebrew windows (at least win9x, IIRC from the talk there was with the guy
from the ibm bidi mozilla team) doesn't give an option to disable the bidi
support, whereas gtk will give an option to diable bidi support.
