Wuzzy, Turns out rendering #Arabic is hard. No, you can't just implement the #Unicode #Bidirectional Algorithm and call it a day. It turns out the Arabic letters/symbols/? have different forms depending on where they are in the word and probably there are other non-trivial features. Yeah, I guess I just postpone this.
So my 1000 IQ workaround for now is to just render all arabic characters as U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER for now.
