Unfortunately, in my case the parentheses are likely to be just regular text and I have no direct way of knowing whether they surround Arabic or Western text (other than trying to find some all-purpose magic XPath analyzing basically every text() node). But the content inside the parentheses is tagged as non-translateable and I can take advantage of that.
<p>ARABIC <nt>Brand name</nt> (<nt>Former name</nt>) TEXT.</p>
By playing around with the tool (and without proper understanding of the rules) I find some options that would make the parentheses correct, but the preceding or following Arabic text will be ordered in the wrong way.
I have the impression that direction control characters in this situation do not as well as <fo:bidi-override> would work.
BTW: I hope this is still on topic enough. That's why I mentioned XPath.
