No, they aren't. Here's how this will look in a right-to-left
paragraph:
`אבג'
(If this doesn't show in your mailer flushed all the way to the right
edge of the window, save this as a text file and visit that file in
Emacs.)

I don't think so. For them to not be problematic, they need to be
"mirrored" at display time -- and that only happens with characters in
BidiBrackets.txt.

Any pair in BidiBrackets.txt will do. The question is: do we want to
use any of them? I don't have an answer to that.
