The interface had no face for Arabic or Hebrew, so caption text, track and media names showed
missing-glyph boxes in the Text panel and on the timeline while the Program monitor drew them.
crates/ui-egui/src/rtl.rs adds the craft-fonts Arab / Hebr faces, else one installed face per
script (Noto Sans Arabic, SF Arabic, Segoe UI...), as the last fallbacks of every UI font family,
as cjk.rs does for Chinese.
egui already shapes each font run with harfrust, so the letters join, but it lays runs out left to
right with no bidi pass and multi-word Arabic read backwards. rtl::Lines lays captions out in
reading order: lines are broken on the logical text as egui wraps it, each line is reordered with
unicode-bidi (UAX #9, as crates/text does for titles) and every right-to-left word is its own
layout section for egui's shaper. Caption blocks on the timeline and the Text panel caption list
use it; a caption being edited keeps egui's logical order, since TextEdit places the caret by
character index. Left-to-right text is laid out exactly as before.
German (de) landed in #630: the localization parity table and the
ROADMAP language table now list it as menus only, 371 of 3,498 strings
(10.6%), native-reviewed. The localization dimension counts 2
menus-only and 5 none, and 5 of Premiere's 10 languages well and 2
partly.

Problem: Indonesian, one of the 12 key languages in
docs/localization-parity.md, had no catalog (0%), so Indonesian users got
the interface in English and System Language never picked Indonesian.
Fix: add crates/ui-egui/src/i18n/id.tsv, clean-room translations of every
entry in the Spanish catalog plus the native macOS Settings menu (3,541),
with a glossary in its header. Language::Id ("Bahasa Indonesia") is
persisted as `id`; it appears in Edit > Language (also the native macOS
menu), Settings > General, and System Language picks it for `id-*` locales
and the legacy `in-*` code older Java/Android runtimes report. Tests cover
the core menus, reject entries without a Spanish counterpart, check glyph
coverage with the bundled fonts, switching/persistence and locale
matching. Attribution sidecar, ATTRIBUTION.md row, docs (gaps.md G14,
localization-parity, ROADMAP, ui-egui README) updated.

Problem: the Portuguese (Brazil) catalog, one of Premiere's interface
languages and one of the 12 key languages in docs/gaps.md G14, covered
only the menus (348 of ~3,540 strings); panels, dialogs, Settings pages,
effect names, the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog and status messages showed
in English.
Fix: pt-br.tsv now has every entry Spanish has plus the native macOS
Settings item, written from the plain meaning of the English text with
ordinary Brazilian video-editing vocabulary (infinitive commands,
polite imperative instructions, sentence case); the header records the
conventions and a term glossary. Like Japanese and French, tests
require only the menus (now every menu label, not just the core set),
so later strings show in English until translated; a Portuguese entry
without a Spanish one fails, and a new test checks the bundled fonts
cover every Portuguese letter. The core-menu set that Ukrainian,
German, Russian and French must cover moves from pt-br.tsv (no longer
menus-only) to the menus-only Ukrainian catalog, unchanged in content
for those tests. Attribution sidecar and ATTRIBUTION.md entry added.

Problem: French, one of Premiere's interface languages and one of the
12 key languages in docs/gaps.md G14, had no catalog; #498 asked for it.
Fix: a new fr.tsv catalog with every entry Spanish has (menus, panels,
dialogs, Settings pages, the Effects / Effect Controls registry, the
Keyboard Shortcuts dialog, status messages) plus the native macOS
Settings item, written from the plain meaning of the English text with
ordinary French editing vocabulary (infinitive commands, "vous", French
sentence case and spacing). Language::Fr is persisted as `fr`;
app.language.french joins Edit > Language (checkmark, native macOS menu),
Settings > General offers Français, and System Language picks French for
any fr-* locale. Like Japanese, tests require only the core menus, so
later strings show in English until translated; a French entry without
a Spanish one fails. A new test checks the bundled fonts cover every
French letter (the glyph check is shared with Ukrainian). Docs: G14,
localization-parity, ROADMAP language row, ui-egui README.
