Currently everything is supposed to work for both LTR and RTL text.
-When KEEP_OLD_METRICS_CODE is defined in TextMetrics.cpp, the new code
-is tested against the old one in getPosNearX and cursorX. This can be
-helpful when looking for discrepancies between the algorithms. Note
-that this only makes sense when force_paint_single_char=true, since
-this enforces char-by-char metrics computation.

Next steps:
-* get lots of testing.
+* Fix bugs uncovered by testing.
-* Get rid of old code in cursorX and getPosNearX; it has been
- kept for comparison purpose, guarded with KEEP_OLD_METRICS_CODE in
- order to check computations.
+* Get rid of LyXRC::force_paint_single_char, which is only a workaround.
+
+* Maybe get rid of LyXRC::rtl_support, which does not have a real use case.
* Profile and see how performance can be improved.

work if we are sure that the Row object is up-to-date when drawing
happens. This depends on the update machinery.
- This would allow to get rid of the Bidi code.

-
-Known bugs:
-
-* When selecting text, the display seems to move around. This is
- because partly selected words are drawn in two parts, and in case
- like "ef|fort" or "V|AN", there are some ligature or kerning effects
- that change the display. I am not sure yet how to fix that.
-
-* there are other differences in what breaks words. In particular,
- RowPainter breaks strings at spell-checking extremities. This seems
- to be harmless.
-
-* when clicking in the right margin, getPosNearX does not return
- the same value as before. I am not sure whether this is important.
-
-
-Other differences in behavior (aka bug fixes):
-
-* end of paragraph markers metrics are computed with the font of the
- actual text, not default font.
-
-* in RtL paragraphs, the end-of-paragraph marker does not move the row
- to the right anymore (ticket #9040).
-
-* When cursor is after a LtR separator just before a RtL chunk, the
- cursor position is computed better with the new code.
+ This would allow to get rid of the Bidi.cpp code.
