So when you are building a language with Modularization, you have to explicitely state that you are supporting bi-directional text. All W3C family-members of XHTML do this.
Given that the feature is also available in some form in Unicode this doesn't make much sense to me. I also don't really understand why such a feature should be optional.
We feel that just because the DOM includes an attribute on an element, that doesn't automatically imply it should be exposed in the markup. There are many things in the DOM that are not.
When you serialize the DOM back to markup this creates problems.
But in any case, as I said in my earlier email, it is not the aim of this revision of Modularization to change the markup languages using it, even if we felt it was a good idea to add dir to the above elements.
target="" is one thing which has been added, I don't really see why this can't be considered.
