In the new deerpark alpha 2 (havn't checked on alpha 1), there is no
"bidi.browser.ui" in the about:config, so there isn't any way to enable to extra
bi-di support (this allowes using ctrl+shift+x to switch direction, etc..).

Does anyone know where's this option gone?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to about:config
2. write bidi in the search
3. the bidi.browser.ui doesn't there



Expected Results:  
bidi.browser.ui should have been there, with an option to enable i.

I don't remember you adding the preference to about:config, plus you use
try/catch because the pref does not normally exist.

I'll attach a new patch for seamonkey which removes the try, catch.

why not make it behave like this:
No explicit setting -> autodetect from oocale
Setting to false    -> disable UI
Setting to true     -> enable UI
hm, I suppose that that would sorta be the opposite of what this bug was
requesting :)
