Locales are a good thing to define anyway, since it allows the
applications to display localized dates, numbers etc.
As to the default direction, currently Qt decides it by the "first
strong character" approach (e.g. first non-punctuation character is
Hebrew => the string is RTL).
I asked Lars to add a Windows-like forced alignment switches
(Left/RightCtrl + Shift)
BTW; seen the "Insert special Unicode character" in the text boxes'
context menu in Windows 2000? It's VERY nice.
