I would like to remind that we have at least two new pieces of information
that weren't available when the WG made its resolution:

(1) evidence that head/tail has some semantic problems in Japanese;
(2) evidence of a prior expressed intent to maintain or enhance a single
underlying formatting model between CSS, XSL-FO, and (by extension) other
specs that derive from these (e.g., TTML);

Given this new information, I would suggest we put the question back on the
table at the upcoming F2F to attempt to obtain a final, acceptable
resolution.
