TASK DESCRIPTION I just found @Jakob_WMDE’s https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/WikibaseLexeme/+/641762 on Gerrit, which fixes the language code we add to lemmas (from MediaWiki to HTML); this made me notice we might be missing other attributes too. An example can be seen in this permalinked statement <https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?oldid=1564841413#P5191>, linking to قَلَمٌ (L203) <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Lexeme:L203>. Currently, the link has the following HTML: <span lang="ar">قَلَمٌ</span> And looks like this: F34933127: Screen Shot 2022-01-27 at 16.55.42.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F34933127> I thought that it should probably have a `dir=` attribute as well. But when I add that: <span dir="rtl" lang="ar">قَلَمٌ</span> It suddenly looks like this: F34933129: Screen Shot 2022-01-27 at 16.56.32.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F34933129> With `dir="ltr"` it looks identical; the default, `dir="auto"`, somehow has a different effect from both `dir="ltr"` and `dir="rtl"`. Another part of WikibaseLexeme (`LexemeTermFormatter`) also adds a CSS class: <span dir="rtl" class="mw-content-rtl" lang="ar">قَلَمٌ</span> However, that doesn’t change the appearance either: F34933137: Screen Shot 2022-01-27 at 16.58.05.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F34933137> I’m a bit confused by this. Is it correct that the value as a whole is left-aligned inside the box? Should we add the `dir=` attribute?
