 * thanks for your plugin
    I’m working on a bilingual site and would very much like
   to have additional 2 quicktags LTR and RTL that will allow comment users to write
   in correct direction. I believe this is basic and would love to see it in your
   plugin. thanks

 * Isn’t that handled in your theme? The plugin would just default to whatever you
   have your theme/site set to and isn’t something the majority of users would want
   to change.

 * hey Mika and thanks for your reply
 * the theme I use (Divi) is supporting RTL, but unfortunately NOT to the comment
   field NOR to the message field of a contact form in frontend and this is on an
   ENGLISH version WP site.
 * Just like in this comment field that I’m typing in this reply, that has some 
   quicktags, if it had the LTR / RTL buttons it would allow a user to set direction
   to a paragraph and would solve the matter.
    You can always add it as an option
   to your plugin’s settings if you think this is not so important to millions RTL
   users :-).
 * Many thanks

 * Yeah… I’m not super thrilled with the idea of adding everything to this plugin.
 * On the long to-do list is figuring out how to make it easily extendable :/ It’s
   not since it’s got bits hardcoded into JS right now.
