I don't see why pick on bidi. Unicode rendering is not reversible in
Latin too - from the rendering you cannot and should not be able to
tell whether a character was decomposed or precomposed.

Looking at some text, you would not be able to tell whether there are
or aren't trailing spaces. This goes for good old ASCII too.
                   

What's the point? What has it to do with security?
