I love that people are trying to use this editor with RTL text.

We haven't tried to do this yet at all, but as you mentioned, it's planned for sure.

Mainly I just want to make sure it's in the bug tracker for future reference. :D

Still an issue? - to check.

Can you install it on some RTL wiki? he.wikisource is often used as a testbed. Or in labs somewhere.

Mass-moving items into VisualEditor product

We're generally not intending wider deployment on a real wiki right now (imposing it on the MediaWiki.org community is taxing enough). Perhaps a labs deployment in HE would work (and one in a CJK language, at minimum)? But more to the point, none of the team use RTL or CJK languages so 'testing by inspection' is more challenging. :-)

Mass-move out of "General" to "ContentEditable".

Ask me to test any time.

I've been testing RTL here:

The HTML tag sets lang="he" and dir="rtl". Pasting the above hebrew text results in a section of bi-directional text and typing appears to work.

Verified on my own installation. Great!
