Sounds reasonable to me.
Comment 3 Roman Kuznetsov 2024-12-17 07:05:29 UTC 
Mike K. suggested another solution like to add a different Arabic Element pane, but of course we need some expert here like Khaled
Comment 4 Mike Kaganski 2024-12-17 07:11:17 UTC 
I would suggest instead to split the mixed panels into separate "Western elements", "Arabic/Persian elements", ... (maybe in the future, there could appear more variants - I don't know which cultures use other notation). As a proponent of *removal* of the option that disables RTL (and Asian) support, I would suggest to not make these elements / panels depend on that option.
