/**
 * This event is sent to BidiSegmentListeners when a line is to
 * be measured or rendered in a bidi locale.  The segments field is 
 * used to specify text ranges in the line that should be treated as 
 * separate segments for bidi reordering.  Each segment will be reordered 
 * and rendered separately.
 * <p>
 * The elements in the segments field specify the start offset of 
 * a segment relative to the start of the line. They must follow
 * the following rules:
 * <ul>
 * <li>first element must be 0
 * <li>elements must be in ascending order and must not have duplicates
 * <li>elements must not exceed the line length
 * </ul>
 * In addition, the last element may be set to the end of the line 
 * but this is not required.
 *
 * The segments field may be left null if the entire line should 
 * be reordered as is.
 * </p>
 * A BidiSegmentListener may be used when adjacent segments of 
 * right-to-left text should not be reordered relative to each other. 
 * For example, within a Java editor, you may wish multiple 
 * right-to-left string literals to be reordered differently than the
 * bidi algorithm specifies.  
 *
 * Example:
 * <pre>
 * 	stored line = "R1R2R3" + "R4R5R6"
 *		R1 to R6 are right-to-left characters. The quotation marks
 * 		are part of the line text. The line is 13 characters long.
 * 
 * 	segments = null: 
 * 		entire line will be reordered and thus the two R2L segments 
 * 		swapped (as per the bidi algorithm). 
 *		visual line (rendered on screen) = "R6R5R4" + "R3R2R1"
 * 
 * 	segments = [0, 5, 8]	
 * 		"R1R2R3" will be reordered, followed by [blank]+[blank] and 
 * 		"R4R5R6". 
 *		visual line = "R3R2R1" + "R6R5R4"
 * </pre>
