Writing mode description in ODF 1.4

I think, we have (at least) two problems here. So the issue should be divided
into two reports.

(A)
The example window in the dialog does not show the essential property of the
text direction.
The example shown there is not a fixed image but generated content depending on
the settings of the page style. The text shown in the example is generated in
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/svx/source/dialog/pagectrl.cxx?r=444bf871#222
It might already help to add an east Asian glyph to the "ABC" text, "ABC本" for
example. It needs to be something, which allows to see the direction in small
font size. (And of cause which has a neutral meaning.)
BTW, the text direction setting in frame styles in Writer have no example at
all but only the text description.


(B)
"Stacked" writing modes are missing. Vertical without character rotation is
currently only available as character property or for table cell styles in ODF.
 Implementing a "stacked" writing mode requires an extension to the file
format. A "stacked" writing mode would be of most interest for shapes and
frames. I don't think that a "stacked" writing mode is useful for pages.

The attached document contains the description of the writing modes in ODF 1.4.
