Unfortunately the concept is misunderstood, it is not the duty of bidi package to add support for other packages but other packages themselves have to add bidi support. bidi should only support standard LaTeX and considering this, I have done heaps more than I ought to do. So it makes sense if you contact the author of ednotes package and ask him for bidi support in his package.
