Re: [Bug 10825] i18n comment 21 : location of user agent window's overall vertical scrollbar

Hi,

I see that the editor is rejecting the proposals regarding UI issues
(keyboard shortcut for direction-switching, location of the scrollbar,
etc.).
While this seems justified (after all, this is really out of scope for the
HTML spec), I feel that these proposals should not be lost, and should be
kept in a way that is likely to reach browser-developers.
Perhaps an "implementation guidelines" page, or appendix, on the W3C site.
