Fedora reports that I'm using version 1.0.1 (came from their repos). Is the
fix applied to this version? The problem doesn't seem to be fixed. :(

What's happening is that on my posts, the first line is a string with my
name and a note about the time appended to it. The first part of the string
is RTL, and following my name are symoblic and numeric characters such as (1
that are also being rendered RTL along with my name. It's not until the
English characters come in that the string switches to LTR... there must be
a way to separate my name from the appended string and forcibly display the
latter in LTR as necessary (depending on Gwibber's display language).
