| It's not an oversight. It's left like that in etc/HELLO as a constant
| reminder that Emacs doesn't yet support bidirectional editing, and as an
| incentive for the developers to add that support ;-)

| When bidi support is added, the display engine will reorder the letters so
| that they are displayed correctly. This is called logical-to-visual order
| conversion, and is a necessary part of any bidi-enabled editor. See the
| Unicode Technical Report #9 for more details (and some insight into why is
| this so hard to add to Emacs ;-).
