By "here" I meant Iranian people.  As Persian is written
right-to-left too, I assume it would solve your problem too.
Well, if you use UTF-8 at least.

Many recent CMSes are XML based and have a decent theme-engine,
so that making them work right-to-left is a matter of writing the
right theme.  That's the way people handle it for Persian.

Yes, it's not hard, but there are many problems with inventing
the wheel.  And you make the problem harder for the next person
that wants to choose!  Instead of starting yours, better you go
fix your problems with one of the available ones.  For example,
MovableType does not support Iranian calendar and many users do
not care.  But I do care and would add the support myself when I
really need to use it.  AND I would send my changes upstream so
next person can easily get it as granted.
