Shaping seems to work on 0.9.4, but there are other problems
with the layout primarily as it relates to viewing Arabic
pages. I can't tell exactly what's wrong, but it seems as
though text is left-aligned, when it should be right-aligned
which leads to ALOT of visual problems. Horizontal scrolling
also doesn't seem to detect pages wider than current browser
width (on Arabic pages).

Check out any of the following sites and compare 'em to IE-5.0+
www.aljazeera.net
www.aljareeda.com (horizontal scroll problem)
www.ayna.com
www.linux4arab.com
www.arabia.com/arabic
All in all - I wouldn't say that Arabic is completely supported
as this point (9/10 people I talked to said that wouldn't use
mozilla just yet due to these problems).
Are these known problems ? Are there work-arounds/fixes ?
