FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
mustang, b53

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
irrelevant

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
irrelevant

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
JTable rendering is not BIDI compliant

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
- compile and run the example
- look at the cell alignment: the left table is LToR (western) component orientation, the right table is RToL (eastern) Co - the right table should be a mirror of the left.

same with editors (no code shown, but you probably get the drift)

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -

ACTUAL -

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
