If you use the Qt-supplied editors (QLineEdit, QPlainTextEdit, etc.) you get input methods and right-to-left writing direction handling as part of the package.

If you really want to write your own editor (and unless you're porting old code, I don't know why you would) look at QInputMethodEvent. The documentation is a bit on the short side, but I was ultimately able to figure out enough that it appears to me that we have input methods working acceptably in our old editor windows.
