YES! Many displayed strings change their shape afterwards.
?When I go forward or backward with the cursor keys in the greetings (also in the header) the direction of cursor movement is reversed at two or three spots.I don't see cursor movement reversal on MS-Windows. Can you tell what characters are those where it happens, e.g., by counting the number of C-f keystrokes from the beginning of the line?
When I start at the default minor-mode at the left-most character, the strings first change their look. First <right> position point on the third character. When I now invoke C-u C-x = on this character point goes left to the second character. Next <right> changes again the shape of the strings. Next <right> warps point to fifth character, next <right> back to fourth, next <right> to seventh, then comes <SPACE>, then warp to /, <SPACE>, first character of second string. Next <right> positions point on second character and one more <right> leaps to possibly fourth one, then fifth (neighbour), then jump to possibly seventh, eighth, last ninth, before it falls down on next line right of the small depressed Ω like character (see my screenshot).
With bidi-display-reordering set to nil no change in direction of movement happens. (Cursor also stops at final C-j of line. Next <right> does the line-feed and carriage-return.)
