If you have
L2R text here ....
..... and R2L text here what is the L2R position after here?
If the text width is not fixed how can I calculate the width of a R2L
line as it is displayed including any space between the left edge of the
display until where the text ends?

IIUC this means that the slider width must be calculated paragraph-wise
and position and size of the slider are meaningful only with respect to
the paragraph point is currently in.

Admittedly, horizontal scroll bars are not very useful when line
continuation is on.

Does it work now in that case?
