    Done on main. It uses Onu's ThaanaKeyboard (phonetic/JTK by default; phonetic-hh and typewriter too). You toggle it from the toolbar or with Alt+Shift+T, and it starts on for the dv locale (config block-editor.thaana, per field thaana / :thaana-keyboard="false"). While on, the editor is lang="dv" dir="rtl". Settings inputs marked ->thaana() (alt text, captions, button text) type Thaana too.

    Mixed direction: text blocks are dir="auto", and lists, quotes and tables take the direction of their first strong character. The PHP renderer, the React renderer and the editor (via Onu's AutoDirection) all resolve it the same way. Code is always LTR. Checked in Chromium: dhivehi types ދހިވެހި.
