I have been working on the dhivehi language(unicode) and converted
some document but using search index , i am not able to see the result
even there is the document with those search terms.

I have converted Nepali Langauge Interface and some document in my
local language ( unicode) and the search is working fine with it.

the only difference between Nepali and Dhivehi is , Nepali language is
LTR style where as Dhivehi is RTL style. I checked out the source
code of search and i found some strange things with dhivehi

In Nepali :
<input type="hidden" name="e" value="q-01000-00---
off-0nepalith--00-1----0-10-0---0---0direct-10-DC--4-------0-1l--11-
ne-50---20-about-काठमाडौं --00-3-1-00-0-0-11-1-0utfZz-8-00">

In Dhivehi :
<input type="hidden" name="e" value="q-010-00-off-
faithoor--00-1----0--0direct-10-DS--4----Sec---0-1l--11-en-50---20-
about-މުޙައްރިރު--00-3-1-00-0-0-11-1-0utfZz-8-00">

here the search query term position is different,even i place the
dhevihi term after about-, it will be auto moved to current place.

Dhevihi is in similar style as in arabi and urdu. Can anyone help me
what i can do to make search possible.
