First of all a big thank you to the JUCE team for the updated Font rendering in JUCE 8.  
Very happy about that, especially the fallback font support for glyphs not natively supported by a font.

I’m wondering if there are any plans to support RTL (right-to-left) text editing in JUCE?  
Is something like this in the works?
