Kivy's text input for Arabic text

[Ahmed]

I'm trying to use Kivy's text input for Arabic text. I have an Arabic font set up with my text input but when I type into the input (in Arabic) I just get Arabic letters appearing from left to right (and they're not connected as Arabic letters should be when they're adjacent to each other).

Is there a way to get Kivy/text input to support RTL languages input that I'm missing (esp Arabic).
