Comment 21 for bug 927931

I don't mean to add noise and turn this into a noisy bug.

I just want to point out an obvious question about the FDO#54493 solution.

What about Linux users? Hey- I'm a Linux user and I'm the one who reported this bug :)

But, really, even if the same principal can be implemented on all platforms, will that be enough? What about a scenario where a user:
1. turns on his system for the first time
2. opens up the lovely Writer
3. discovers there's no Arabic keyboard layout defined
4. opens his keyboard layout settings and adds his Arabic layout
5. tries to use Writer that's already open
6. discovers that there's no RTL support

That would be, I imagine, a common scenario in Linux distributions live CDs/USBs where it would leave a bad impression, unreflective of the overall Linux and LibreOffice experience.

Thanks for bearing with me,
Shahar
