Apparently the XSLT stylesheet is dropping the dir attributes away.

Your only bet is that they use Omega, then there are hacks around that you can use. > Now, I'm pleased to announce a suggestion to completing the support for > RTL subscripts in that tools (and of course, this is true when my guess > about missing supports for RTL will be correct). Thanks for your announcement, but if you need something, start doing it yourself. Or file a feature request with the maintainers of the respective tools.
