+Does ikiwiki support RTL languages? I read somewhere it does, but I don't see
+any mention of that here (or anywhere else... that info may be wrong).
+
+I'd like to add RTL support to my wiki, for text direction and maybe for the
+page layout too. Before I edit my CSS, page.tmpl and possibly Perl for
+automatic direction setting - does ikiwiki support this in any way?
+
+On my wiki (ikiwiki version from Debian 7 stable) everything is aligned to
+the left, and unicode RTL characters cannot change that - the .tmpl and
+css files would need to be changed, it seems.
+
+I will happily share my insights and code, if I manage to get anything
+useful to work :-)
