Patch version 1

This is a first cut at a patch, it's not complete but I have some questions
before I continue:
* In the case of RTL text, the first ellipse isn't spaced properly from the
last letter of the text, what's the correct way to add the space between the
text and ellipse?
* What would be the best place to put the accompanying layout test?
* With this patch, RTL links draw an underline only under the ellipses and not
the actual text (see attached testcase & screenshot), any ideas where this
might stem from?
* Is the check for m_dirOverride ok?  It's not clear to me why the placement of
the EllipsesBox is different using a forced bidi override?
