I have no idea why, and I don't have any idea why we need the \rtl

Hum, I've done some thinking about that... Instead of the language,
maybe we can base the RTL display upon the unicode codepoints and set
the language automatically as well if we detect hebrew or arabic?
I doubt this will work with numbers and punctuation.
We might have to adjust punctuation and number treatment, indeed but
this is exactly what Qt does when you pass it a whole string mixing
arabic and english. As a matter of fact, this is also what Fribidi does.
I guess the solution to our RTL problem is just to completely delete our
painting support code and rely on Qt to do right thing. This just mean
that we send complete string instead of single word.
