Thanks for the pointer, that would be the 'format-control' group?
I see it set to "Display as thin space".
But that's only half the story. The other half of how bidi control characters
display is the effect that they have on surrounding text.
glyphless-char-display-control does not affect that.

I went looking for a bidi off switch precisely because I'm aware that the
Unicode bidi rules are complicated, or at least confusing when put into
practice, and for those of us that don't read RTL languages, it might be better
to switch it off completely than to try to understand it.
bidi-paragraph-direction was the only candidate to a bidi off switch that I
could find.
If that's not what it is, then where is the master switch to turn bidi
processing off?
