Pretty easy, and anything that's needed to support Arabic and Hebrew in posts is a high priority. I'll set aside a few hours soon to go through the easy feature requests and implement a bunch.
For the geeks in the audience, should "rtl" be a "div" (a wrapper around one or more paragraphs) or a "span" (something that use use inline inside a mostly English paragraph)? Or do we need both for best results?
As an exception, this should be "div" - the actual writing of rtl is already managed by embedded ISO codes. The rtl tag will specifically produce a section that will be right page aligned. The entire section is then placed on the right. If you need to produce Hebrew or Arabic in-line then there is no need to use the tag. For example this: עיכר was written with ע first. (that's why I left the original 'p' rather than replace it with 'span')
