When the charset is "visual" (such as "ISO-8859-8", "visual", "IBM862"), or one 
forced "Visual Text Type" from the View Menu, Right-to-Left direction in a 
block-level element must cause the entire text content of this element to be 
reversed (uncluding English strings).

So there is no bug... the attached testcase shows correct behaviour.

    
    

    
  
I guess Lina Kemmel is right.
