Chinese doesn't need this setting, it just needs support for wide characters
(Unicode property East_Asian_Width), which take 2 cells. Urdu is a RTL
language.

So maybe something like "Support for complex scripts (Right to left languages,
Brahmic/Indic scripts, ...)"?

Currently, at src/widgets/EditProfileAdvancedPage.ui we have this:

      <widget class="QCheckBox" name="enableBidiRenderingButton">
       <property name="sizePolicy">
        <sizepolicy hsizetype="Preferred" vsizetype="Fixed">
         <horstretch>0</horstretch>
         <verstretch>0</verstretch>
        </sizepolicy>
       </property>
       <property name="toolTip">
        <string>Enable Bi-Directional display on terminals (valid for Arabic,
Farsi or Hebrew only)</string>
       </property>
       <property name="text">
        <string>Bi-Directional text rendering</string>
       </property>
      </widget>


Both the text and the tooltip need to be rewritten, and I can't think off-hand
of something short, concise and sufficiently clear to people without previous
knowledge of RTL and Indic text rendering.

BTW, the setting now does two things:
 - It enables RTL display by not putting a Left-to-Right Mark in front of text
to be rendered.
 - It allows rendering a run of text as a whole unit.
