Enhanced Arabic Language Support (Spellcheck and Typography)

Subject: 1. Arabic Language Spellcheck:** Currently, when writing in Arabic within Obsidian, there is no native spellcheck functionality. Integrating Arabic into the built-in spellchecker would be an invaluable feature, eliminating the need for external tools and ensuring greater accuracy and efficiency for millions of potential users who rely on the application for notes, journaling, and academic work in Arabic.

2. Improved Arabic Font Visibility and Rendering: The current default rendering for Arabic script often results in low visibility or an overly light typeface, which can strain the eyes and make long-form reading and editing challenging. Arabic typography requires specific attention to weight and spacing for optimal readability.

I recommend reviewing the default font stack and styling rules for RTL text to ensure the Arabic characters are rendered with appropriate weight, contrast, and visibility, making the application much more accessible and comfortable for Arabic writers.

Thank you for considering these improvements. I believe these enhancements would welcome a large community of new and existing users who need robust, high-quality RTL support.

Best regards,
