Is it possible that `bidiElem` is `null`? It should never be. If it is, it is a
bug in the code and throwing NPE seems good — it will be the indication of the
bug.
Since the NPE has never been thrown from this code, I'd rather leave it
unchanged here.

I'm rather unsure why any of these could become negative. Would it be possible
that using `Math.abs` corrupts the document or leads to a data loss?
The thing is the `UndoableEdit` was produced while the document and the
component didn't have `bidi` set to `true`. Inserting a right-to-left text
changes that situation, and `bidiRoot` starts to contain elements. I assume
changing the component orientation also modifies the contents of `bidiRoot`. As
such, performing the undo operation may become impossible because the recorded
state in the `UndoableEdit` is inconsistent with the current state of the
document.

`TestUndoInsertArabicText`? It's more specific this way.

Is the underscore necessary at the end of the field names?

Is `frame` even required? Using `textArea` should be enough.
