The attachment file contains two lines of Hebrew text (encoding windows-1255,
e.g. logical, not visual); one of them is rendered properly (i.e. in the
right-aligned line, the first character of the first word appears first on the
right, then the second char of the first word etc). The next line is rendered in
reverse. Apparently when the 'position: relative' is removed the rendering is
proper.
Oh, forgot to mention my build is 2002-09-11-10 (but it was the same for a few
earlier builds I had too).
Confirming on Windows and Linux.

Summary: Hebrew text rendered end-to-start rather than start-to-end → RTL text with position: relative not reordered on display
Attached patch Patch v.1 (deleted) — Splinter Review
Good catch: we weren't including positionedInlineFrame in the list of frames
whose children we need to look at when collecting text from a block element to
pass to the Bidi reordering algorithm.

Adding positionedInlineFrame to the condition solves the problem with this test
case, but maybe there is a simpler and/or more general solution?
