Richmond, I had precisely this problem with an Arabic project one of my students produced several years back. Unfortunately my research did not turn up a solution at that time, other than to make a note to that effect in your help documents. Not that helpful, I know. If you're on Mac OS it might be possible to use an AppleScript to change to the desired input method.
