Handa-san is currently trying to plug the sequential implementation of
UAX#9 that I wrote into the Emacs display code. The code I wrote
renders "H-5" as "-5H", as per UAX#9. One needs to type "H-{RLM}5"
to get the "H-5" result that most Hebrew users want.
I guess we will need to get used to type RLM and LRM in similar
situations, since we must be UAX#9 compliant, and since UAX#9 results
in such madness in quite a few cases like this, sigh.
