That's why Moriel invested so much time in an easy graphical way to do it :)

It's still in the "finishing touches" stage.

The trouble is that while bidi isolation replaces most or all of the uses of
RLM, it doesn't work in IE. Saw it coming? :)

In fact, IE 10 and 11 (!) even show some elements with bidi isolation very
incorrectly. Test the following page:

I love this proposal.
