If any of you set bidi-display-reordering to a non-nil value and see some strange or unexpected behavior in the display area, please reset the variable and try again. Please report the effect of this with the bug you submit (if you submit). This commit also fixes a few long-standing bugs with bidi redisplay, see the logs. TIA
