Gecko 1.8 already supports correct placement of Hebrew/Arabic short vowels and
other diacritics *on Windows* but not on Linux. (I'm not sure about Mac.)

No improvement in the latest 1.9 (alpha) builds as shown by "Mozilla/5.0 (X11;
U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20061216 SeaMonkey/1.5a" (Build ID:
2006121601): to correctly display my frontpage
http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/ on Linux, I have to use Konqueror.


Best regards,
Tony.
