obvious here, but I think that the application will know which

and I want RTL I hit Ctrl-Alt-X and vice versa. Try it in a Mozilla
app.

And what will happen when you save, close your application, and then reload the document? Wouldn't you expect your Ctrl-Alt-X to be remembered? That requires application support, there is no way[1] to do that using the toolkit.

1- Obviously, there is a way. For example, we can store a hash of the content of the control box along with the directionality override. That will not transfer correctly to another machine, but we can set a p2p network that will distribute it to other clients so it will display correctly on everyone who opts-in to do so. Such a thing is, obviously[2], too ludicrous to be implemented by anyone.

2- Obvious, that is, until you realize this is, almost exactly, what greasemonkey is doing.
