I've seen the same in the early GTK+ 1.3 snapshots about half a year
ago. Also, Mozilla provides the same functionality. The BiDi builds
reverse Hebrew too.
Also, I've seen one of the latest Qt 3.0 snapshots. They added
LOCALE-independent input (no need to set LC_CTYPE etc.) so you can just
switch the map and keep typing. Unfortunatelly, it doesn't handle BiDi
editing quite well yet
(http://www.galanet.net/~future/qt-bidi-broken.png).
And yes, the Qt widgets handle multiple-languages-in-one-widget since
Qt 2, since Qt 2 stores text in Unicode internally. Try cut-n-pasting
from GTK+ 1.3 or Mozilla. You can combine Russian, Hebrew (no BiDi in
Qt 2) and English.
