See patch attached to thread
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/85603. It is meant to be
applied against Stefan's patch for cursor movement, which isn't committed yet.
If for any reason that patch doesn't go in in the end, this fix can probably be
modified for the current code, as well.

Just to make it a little clearer: the idea is that at the boundary, the cursor
should be placed where it would have been placed in the language that you are
coming from. This means that at a given boundary, the cursor may be placed at p1
if coming from the left (where the language is, say, RTL), but at p2 if coming
from the right (where the language is, say, LTR).
