Hebrew is one of those right to left languages, but this is an output
only concern. The input system still needs to give the events in
chronological order.  Again, for hebrew, even the output support needs
to be done at the application level. Putting it in the console is hack
that works a little, and might be useful in a few occasions, but it is
not the solution for BiDirectional functionality.
