I don't know if bidi will ever be there either, but the sole fact that it supports UTF-8 is already surprising (the editor lags behing for ages in that respect) and enough for a vast majority of TeX users. It's not that he made it default on his own machine - it is now default with every installation of WinEdt (it might be that they made that on his request). Mojca
