Thanks, Hans!

With \setupdirections[bidi=global,method=three], the footers are placed correctly.  But the left footer still does not get RTL treatment.  Adding \setupdirections[bidi=global,method=three] inside startsetups does not help.

Method three has this "bug": a word with ZWNJ gets the long direction.  For example, if I have A+ZWNJ+B (logical), visually I should get "B+ZWNJ+A" but I don't.  It works correctly with SPC in place of ZWNJ.

use method "three"

(I'll add "unicode" method which will take the latest version.)
