Or do we envision > someone using a Hebrew style, but writing predominantly LTR text for > the footnotes themselves? I see your point, and can only think of two reasons not to: 1] The user may have already customized the tag and its regexp for some other string for Hebrew documents (maybe something like נ.ב.). 2] The user may have decided on a language neutral section tag, maybe a string of "=" or "━". My guess, though, is that you're correct, because most emacs users who write Hebrew footnotes will also be writing לע"ז and would welcome the auto-switch. I'll let you make the final decision, and will code it into the Hebrew functions. > > What is annoying for me now is using RTL footnotes in an LTR > > document, because the footnote section keeps bouncing between LTR > > and RTL whenever emacs prompts me for word-completion candidates (I > > think that would be 'company-mode'). > > Sounds like a bug.

I've been trying that now, but can't reproduce it in a clean `emacs -Q'. The specific company mode is `company-dabbrev'.
