this is another problem from bidi localparts:

after applying " s/([.@])/(LRE)&1(PDF)/g ";
we get:
(new storage order for display)
LocalRTL(LRE)@(PDF)FirstRTL(LRE).(PDF)SecondRTL(LRE).(PDF)com
When stringprep200?, 2nd and 3rd LRE will be deleted/prohibited,
but first LRE which is part of localpart string
would remain *attached* unless we apply some kind of preprocessing
to delete it before using it as recipient address in composing/replying.
This problem occurs when below displayed address is copy&pasted into
recipient address entry form in EAI-capable MUA for replying/composing.
