Emacs will support bidirectional display [...]
The current code in indent.c assumes that buffer positions increase
monotonically with screen positions. I'm not saying that you should do
my job of lifting that limitation, but please keep this in mind when you
design and code the new indent.c, so that changing it for bidi Emacs
would not be harder than it is today.
what makes it difficult to support this lifting, today? what makes supporting
that lifting difficult in general?
