Bug ID: 56779
Summary: VisualEditor: The direction of the <textarea> in
extension tags editor must correspond to the
surrounding content direction
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: MediaWiki integration

Currently, if I go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Amire80/ve-poem and
edit it using VE, I can edit the content of the <poem> tag. If my UI language
is Hebrew, then the <textarea> for editing the poem is RTL. I would expect it
to be LTR.
Ideally the default direction for the <textarea> that this feature should be
the direction of the surrounding text. If it's hard to get, then the direction
of the page's content will probably suffice. (Currently it will be the same as
the content language of the wiki, but it may change some day when we finally
introduce page language.)
There can also be some tags for which the default direction must be different,
such as <source>, but that's an issue for a separate bug.
