Description Matt Walker 2013-08-10 02:09:27 UTC When a username such as "Test (User)" is created and displayed on a RTL wiki; the personal toolbar will render it as "(Test (User". This is probably caused by having no RTL hinting in the generated element even though there is hinting in the upstream template code.
