           Summary: [harfbuzz] Always pass correct text direction to
                    HarfBuzz
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified

The code in ./Source/WebCore/platform/graphics/harfbuzz/HarfBuzzShaper.cpp currently doesn't  pass text direction to HarfBuzz when webkit is measuring text.  I'm not sure whether this is a webkit limitation or just the harfbuzz layer.  But we should fix this.  FWIW, we should *always* pass the correct direction, script, and language (if known) to harfbuzz.

This is followup from bug 110145.
