Description Jazz Cat

This is a requirement for BIDI lanaguages such as Hebrew and Arabic.
There are situations where a different directionality (i.e. SWT.LEFT_TO_RIGHT/RIGHT_TO_LEFT) is needed for different columns in the same table. 

Current API only allows to set the directionality of the entire table.

Thanks,
-S.

I think we need this capability also at a table row level and leaf cell level as the finest level of granularity.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
