I think we are dependent solely on the web browser for coping with
directionality in languages. Most modern browsers support this and HTML/CSS
has appropriate styling (e.g. DIR attribute). See. E.g.,

The only trouble we might face are languages that need to be read from  
right to left.
That might need more changes than simply the translations. All others  
are supported, yes.
