I can confirm this with a Turkish keyboard as well. very simple to see:

1. set keyboard to turkish qwerty (others might also work)
2. type hello (something)
3. switch to arabic keyboard
4. change font
5. place cursor inside the word "hello"
6. type something
7. watch as the font changes to dejavu sans.

Expected behavior:
at step 7, no change of fonts. the font you selected should stay as it is.

annoying indeed.

PS this is a Dapper up to date.

PSS. I'm pretty sure anyone running Edgy can test this real easily.
