[xep-support] Does XEP support right-to-left text?

The current version of XEP supports only Western writing mode -
left-to-right, top-to-bottom. I am not aware of any method to achieve
right-to-left writing in XEP (unless you transpose characters on each
string individually - but this is really hard to achieve).

The next version of XEP will have support for right-to-left writing 
mode and bidirectionality. Please follow the announcements.

Best regards,
