GMail compose bidi - auto RTL for Hebrew characters

Recently, when composing email message in GMail, when starting a new paragraph
with Hebrew character, the text is not automatically right aligned.
It is right aligned, only after pressing the ¶< with "to-left-arrow" icon.

Later, when starting a paragraph, with Latin character, the text is nicely automatically left aligned.

For me, it used to nicely auto left/right aligned before.
With Chromium it works fine. I wish there was am easy fix for auto alignment by first character of paragraph.

I did try to play with FireFox about:config bidi settings. But for now with no solution.
