I've encountered this issue on a number of occasions, so I was
extremely happy to find this solution (which is very effective).
I've run into it with interactive Debian package configuration,
to offer another example besides mutt.

e.g.: sudo dpkg-reconfigure postfix

I compiled the current emacs-25 branch and the problem was still
in effect, however: bidi-paragraph-direction is not being set to
'left-to-right automatically.
