+*** long line speedups
+
+Improve the performance of emacs with files that contain long lines. Disable
+left to right and right to left in the same buffer support. Until or if I learn
+a language that needs this I can deal with it then.

+
+Also disable this algorithm, which may unbalance ()'s in bidirectional language
+detection. But again as I don't use/speak/read them. Ok tradeoff.

 *** sentence end
 
 Semi related to the above, make the sentence endings a bit more code-ish.
