Hi

I'd like to write a Heberw document, get a nice result HTML and still be
able to save the source in proper version control.

I could use raw HTML, but there are better options nowadays - asciidoc,
markdown (various implementations), reSt, and such.

But I could not figure a simple way with any of those to get decent
control of bidi. Or specifically:

* Make the whole document RTL
* Make various paragraphs LTR

I guess I need to override some styles. With asciidoc I could not find a
simple way to do that and ended up having to create my own separate
"bidi" style. I didn't yet check all the various reSt and markdown
implementations. Any better alternatives?
