Indeed.  In any case, I think we should encourage people to write tutorials
for any language, whether it's well supported by Emacs or not.

In the case of Hebrew, I think the best option is to write it "right" (using
another editor) and then keep it in Emacs's repository but without offering
it in the list of languages (since Emacs can't currently display it right).

So as soon as we get bidi-support, we'll also get the online
Hebrew tutorial.  One more motivation for writing the bidi support.
