I would be totally against this, because: 1. The toolbar buttons are explicitly marked as regarding the paragraph direction 2. You have to select multiple paragraphs in order to set their paragraph direction... 3. Would be incompatible with every editor app or web control which has paragraph-direction-setting buttons.

They can be inserted using Insert > Special Character... ; now, that's quite inconvenient, but I believe nobody, more-or-less, ever wants to insert anything other than RLM or LRM. I might be wrong, but - do we know that there is user interest in a more convenient method of inserting these? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
