In the current version of MarcEdit, when you open the MarcEditor, you can select a Right to left option (Under Edit menu).  This will shift the values so that it shows up as Right to left.  This function hasn't been tested a lot (it was written with the help of a cataloger in Pakistan) -- so if you want to give it a try -- let me know if you have feedback.
